Fig. 160. The pin tray. A fine test of gouge work
When the outside of the tray fits the templates, it is ready for sand-papering, and not before. To make the tray perfect, an inside template can be used. This template method is used in forming boat models.

COAT HANGER AND TOWEL ROLLERS
The coat hanger is a convenient thing in every household, and also a good example of spokeshave work.
A soft wood, like pine, or white wood, is suitable, and after squaring up two faces and one edge, the design may be drawn on one or both of the faces with a sharp pencil. Cut close to the lines with a turning saw, and finish to lines with spokeshave.
