Woodworking for beginners; a manual for amateurs . ig. 572.) This, properly gluedunder pressure, makes a good joint and one much superior to theplain mitre. But, though easy to do with machinery, it is a slowand careful job to make such a joint by hand, and if a case ariseswhere you wish it done you had best take the work to a factory,where a circular saw is all that is needed. The principle of halving shown in Figs. 539 and 543, can alsobe applied to a mitred joint. Saw-kerfs are often made (Figs. 573 and 574) into which small Tools and Operations 419 strips are tightly fitted and glued. This

Saw-kerfs are often made (Figs. 573 and 574) into which small Tools and Operations 419 strips are tightly fitted and glued. This is a good way and easilydone, once having got the mitre properly put together. A com-bination of the mitre with the joint shown in Fig. 555 is shownin Fig. 575. See also Dovetailing and j^oi?tts. To lay off a mitre, or the lines by which to cut the intersectionof any two pieces at any angle, a simple way is that shown in The pieces are laid one above the other at the desiredangle. Then the points of intersection are marked on each
