Practical engineering drawing and third angle projection, for students in scientific, technical and manual training schools and for ..draughtsmen .. . s. 240. If we fiU the pen with a rather dark tint of the conventional color, draw the grain as inthe figures just referred to, and then overlay all with a medium flat wash of some properly chosencolor, we get effects similar to those of Plate II. On large timber-work the preliminary graining, as also the final wash, may be done altogetherwith the brush; as was the original of Fig. 9, Plate II. End -^-iews of timbers and planks are conventionally represented by a series of concentric free-hand rings in which the spacing increases with the distance from the heart; these are overlaid witha few radial strokes of darker tint. In ink alone the appearance is shown in Figs. 39 and 115. 241. The color-mixtures recommended b\- different writers on wood graining are something shortof infinite in number; but with the addition of one or two colors to those listed in the draughts-mans outfit (Art. 56j one should be able to imitate natures tints very closely. 86 THEORETICAL AND PRA CTICA L
