With regard to the work to fill up the

mortising and tenoning- indeed, the wood

shows what is called the rebate, the part in

az described further on.
The sides only Of the tenon on crossbars
would be cut away so as to leave the
tongue the full width of the wood. As you
cut your mortise and lemons, you should
drive them home gently to see if they fit;
but il you gauge them accurately, there
ought to be very little altering to do:
Rasping or glass-papering should be re-
sorted to if the tongue Is rather too big for
the tenon.
Now we come to the rebating of the inner
edges in order to make it receive the panels
or whatever is going in the screen. Fig. is

depth of the knife in the gauge.
If it is thought simpler to put beads in,
stead Of cutting away the rebate, we should
recommend this method. Our feeling in
the matter is that our readers are more
likely to succeed by making 2 Gig. 81 a
bead instead of cutting away the rebate.
In making the beads, you want some
half-inch stuff nicely planned up and shot at
the edge. Then use your cutting.gauge on
both sides of the wood until You detach the

until sufficient beads are made. You can

Whether you rebate your frame OF fast

your work together.
The beads must be mitred where they
join, and before doing so, you must, OF

The fixed beads e., Fig. 81 may be fasten

better still, bead-nails.
We now come to that part Of the work
known as putting together, and here let
me observe that the various sides and cross
pieces should have marks of ndentifcation
so that you get the tenon in its proper
mortise. Cabinetmakers, a rule, when

where the crossbar Ca, Fig y will come The
tenon on the crossbar might be the whole
width of the wood, namely, two inches; and
the bottom-three inches wide have a two
inch tenon measured from the inside edge.
It will be seen that the gauge can only
mark the sides of the mortise where the cross
bar comes, the top and bottom being marked
with the square.
We will, first of all, deal with the mortise,
The black part in Fig. 9 represents the part

and hit in some smart blows with your mai

upright.
Now put your chise little further along,
hit it smartly, and you will find the wood

other side and proceed in the same way,
and if your operations have been conduct
ed carefully, you ought to meet exactly IN
the centre.
In tenoning, the tongue Gig. A. only IS
left, the rest of the wood being sawn through
with fine saw. Here again you must be
careful to follow the gauge marks, and, as the
tongue ought to fit fairly tight in the mortlse,
you had better keep on the outside OF your
gauge marks. tenon should tit mortlse
closely and yet should not require great force
to drive it home, otherwise 1t is apt to
