Puton a tliick groovinn-saw. and cut on the un-der side of tlie top-bar longitudinally, in tliecenter, a groove ». deep. The bottom-barsare made just tiie same as those of theframes previously described. The end-barsare made just the same, only the top end is HIVE-MAKING. 160 HIVE-MAKING. cut off square, and the length is I shorter ;namely, 8f inclies long. Into the end ofthis make a saw cut, with the same groov-ing-sawthat you used for cutting out thecomb-guide groove in the top bar, i-inchdeep. The comb-guide is 17| inches long,the thickness of a thick grooving-saw, andI wide. Your pieces are now all cut outand ready to be put together, as shown inthe engraving. In the cut, the frame aboveis wired on the Keeney plan. For directionsin regard to it, see Comu the grain. The following cut sliows thecutter-knives on the mandiel.
