Proceed thento follow the design, until that particular part is removed ; then unscrew the saw blade,and proceed as before directed. The edges of the design must now be filed up, whererequired, until all the inequalities, left by the saw, are removed. * Paste is made by mixing flour and water together, stirring it until it boils or stiffens. Starch paste is madeby pouring boiling water on starch, then thoroughly mixing it; it is easier to make, and for many purposes ispreferable to flour
