Modern cabinet work, furniture & fitments; an account of the theory & practice in the production of all kinds of cabinet work & furniture with chapters on the growth and progress of design and construction; illustrated by over 1000 practical workshop drawings, photographs & original designs . in., and are stopped by boring f-in. holes 16 the front edge to receive a short dowel inserted whenthe loper is run in through the drawer opening; this dowelstops against the edge of the division when the loper is drawnforward, and prevents it being entirely withdrawn. A slip ofbilliard table cloth is glued to the top edges of lopers, com-mencing ^ in. from front edge, to prevent marking the faceof fall when horizontal. The sectional view shows a |-in. grooveworked underneath the shelves, this is to receive bookcaseleathers, which are held in position by glueing a wedge-shapedslip in the groove behind the leather strip. An alternate methodof supporting the shelves is shown. Grooves are formed in theends and an L-shaped stud is inserted (see sketch), which leaves Lu& Shelf Support,the lug projecting to support the shelves. Shelves in bottomcarcases are in most cases supported by either of the methods previouslydescribed, or fillets may be used, screwed to the carcase A Dwarf Bookcase (see next page). A part plan of the plinth frame belonging to this piece indicates the con-struction ; the mitres being tongued and blocked, beads are inserted between thewing and centre carcases, which facilitate fitting up and allow the door to clearthe end. The construction of the carcase corner is also shown glued up andrebated right through, and filling pieces are glued in to fit the column, thenlevelled previous to veneering the end and also the front edge. Quarter columnsare worked by planing up four squares of stuff and glueing them together withpaper between the joints ; after the turning and reeding are completed, the jointsare forced apart with a knife, toothed to remove pa
