Out-Door Seat.—The construction of the plain chair shown in Fig. 326 is too obvious to require special description.
Before beginning work read carefully Marking, Rule, Square, Saw, Plane, in [Part V]., and look up any other references.
This seat can be made of thin plank. The most difficult part is the bevelling of the joints (see Bevelling).
The remaining details do not differ from those in the preceding cases. For the painting see Painting, in [Part V].
Bookcase and Lounge.—"Combination" articles of furniture are, as a rule, frequently undesirable on the ground of taste, and often are not as convenient as to have the parts made separately. But the amateur may sometimes find it desirable to join two or more different pieces to fit some particular spot or for some special reason. Examples are given in the bookcase and desk (Fig. 306), in the combination for a corner (Fig. 328), and in Fig. 327. These are given as suggestive of the kind of combinations that can be suitably undertaken by the amateur, and many simple arrangements can readily be contrived when desired.
