Edges to be allowed. 5S PBACJIICAL BULES PIPES. To describe a Pattern for a Pipe to Jit a FlatSurface at any Angle, as the side of the Poof ofa Building. Pig. Let AB, fig. 57, equal the angle of the roof of a building; let,IE, FB equal the pipe; draw the line CE; describe the semi--ircle CDE; divide the semicircle into any number of equal parts;from the points draw lines parallel to EB, as 2, 8, 4, &c, FOR DESCRIBING PATTERNS. 59
