Not illustrated. 1901 Excerpt: ... tacks a thin lath of wood to the gable alongside the groove to be run. These grooves being run, the bottom ends are dovetailed--not through--to receive a f-in. carcase bottom, and the top ends are squared and cut into pins as already mentioned. Two grounds have now to be built to clamp on the inside of the gables. These are of pine, faced on the inner edges with mahogany, as indicated by the lines shown vertically in q.
