Since the parts of the frame are rabbeted the full length for convenience, a special joint is necessary at the corners. The mortises are cut before the rabbets are worked. The tenons are laid out so that the shoulder on one side shall extend as far beyond the shoulder on the opposite side as the rabbet is deep. [Fig. 185].
Where rabbeting must be worked with a chisel alone, [Fig. 186] illustrates the manner of loosening up the wood preparatory to removing it, when the rabbet extends along the grain of the wood.
Fig. 186.
To place glass panels in rabbets, first place a slight cushion of putty in the rabbet that the glass may rest against it. A light cushion between the glass and the fillet will serve to keep the glass from breaking and will keep it from rattling. [Fig. 187].
