Nos. 4 and 5.—Methods of framing wide rails bymeans of double-tenons, suitable for doors where widerails are necessary. No. 4 is usually called a Figure 132 In framing angles having moulds on one or bothedges, the moulds may be intersected either by mitringor scribing. In the mitred joint, the moulds are cutdown at an angle of 45 degrees to the mortise-hole,and the moulds adjoining the tenon are cut to fit. Theonly danger in this method is that, if the wood is wetthe mitre will dry in, leaving an open space impossibleto deal with. The process of scribing (Fig. 130) is to cut underone of the rails to the pattern of the other which it is 230 THE PRACTICAL CABINET MAKER intended to join; but this cannot so easily be done withmouldings containing many members, as it would betoo costly. It, however, has the advantage that, ifshrinkage occurs, the joint can be knocked up again,which would be impossible in the former case. These remarks apply to moulds worked upon thesolid; loose or planted moulds are usually mitred,
