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 . ARM-OF-CHILDS-CHAR- DRAWN ?ONE -THIED-FULLSIZE. ?. A Stuff-ovep Chair and Childs High Chair. CHAIRMAKING 323 A Stuff-over Chair (see opposite). This class of work is so called from the upholstery almost completelycovering the framings, another example of which is illustrated in the Chesterfieldsettee in this chapter. The lines of the frame are determined by the design, andin the majority of cases, closely follow it. The bottom rails of the frame are2 by if in., and to these are fixed the webbings and also the finished materialsof seat (see elevations); the second rail serves as a fixing for the wing or armcoverings and also for the back covering (see dotted lines in side elevation). Thisarrangement of rails holds good in all stuff-over work. The wood used for chairframes is generally birch, this having superseded the use of beech, which wasparticularly susceptible to attack by worms and dry-rot. Dowelling is used infitting up the frame illustrated ; and for repeat work, zinc templates for marking arean advantage, as described in Dowel
