A cornering tool y:^^is made for this purpose. 124. Grooving.—A rectan-gular groove can be cut by handwith a plane made for the pur-pose (as the plough), althoughthis operation has been super-seded by machine work, except in cases of necessity. The beginnershould, however, learn to do such work by hand. The router is oftenused to smooth the bottom of a groove or a dado. In some cases the sides of a groove can be sawed by a hand-saw and thematerial removed by the chisel, but this is not easy if the groove is long. Astick is sometimes clamped beside the line to guide the saw and occasionallyattached to the saw itself, or to a piece of saw-blade. The lines for thegroove can also be cut with the knife or chisel, and the wood between re-moved by the chisel. A templet or pattern can easily be made to
