A piece of heavy paper or flexible semicardboard, such as a telephone book or catalogue cover, is lightly tacked and glued flush with the edges of the disks to form a cylinder. The tacks are removed after the glue has dried. Fig. 2.20. Reeded table lamp. Over 30 ft. of in. halfround molding is cut into twentynine 9in. lengths, which are then glued to the paper cylinder and bradded at each end, as in A of Figure 2.20. When but seven or eight pieces of molding remain to be attached, it is well to check their spacing. If too tight a fit is indicated, the edges of one or more pieces can be filed or sanded down; if the reverse is true, a loose spacing between the remaining pieces will be concealed by the paper backing when paint is applied. No molding ends should protrude beyond the outer faces of the disks INDOOR FURNITURE CONSTRUCTION » The base disk has a 6in. diameter with a in. hole in its center from wh a channel is routed out to the edge to receive the lamp cord. The base is faster to one end of the reeded lamp assembly by three screws driven from the undersi «o that the base overlaps the spreader disk У\ in. A top disk with a 5in. diameter is cut to fit snugly over and conceal the t ends of the moldings. A in. nipple is fitted into the center of the disk, a then the latter can be glued to the upper spreader disk. Wire is threaded through the nipple and the double base, then into its groo out the side of the bottom base piece. A standard socket is screwed into t nipple and wired, and a suitable plug is attached to the free end of the wire, piece of felt can be glued to the bottom of the base to cover the wire's chanr and to prevent marring any surface upon which it stands. Bench. A reeded bench (Figure 2.21) will complement a dressing table covered with organdy, chintz, mirrors, or paint. Its construction is as simple as that of the lamp just described. The two pieces for the top are doweled and glued together and when dry, compass or bandsawed into the pattern shown in A, 2.21, with ends rounded on 6in. radii. A circle with a 10%in. diameter is marked off on one of the 12%in. blocks, which is then marked into quarters. The two blocks are clamped together face to face, or nailed through the waste, and eight in. holes bored as shown in B, bisecting the circumference of the circle in pairs, tangent to each other and to the quartering lines. Both blocks can then be sawed into disk at the same time, then halved. On one of the feet a semicircle, % in. in from one straight edge, is marked o: Wlth a 6y2'm. radius. Both feet are cut to this pattern (C), and one of the semi circular blocks is laid on one of the feet so that its diameter is in. in from th diameter of the foot, and its circumference is 1 in.
