Curves
<p>To draw curves that are not formed of arcs or parts of circles, templates called curves are provided, examples of these forms being given in Figure 6. They are made in wood and in hard rubber, the latter being most durable; their uses are so obviou... Drawing Gear Wheels
<p>The names given to the various lines of a tooth on a gear-wheel are as follows:</p> <p>In Figure 233, A is the face and B the flank of a tooth, while C is the point, and D the root of the tooth; E is the height or depth, and F the breadth. P P is... Drawing Instruments
<p>It is not intended or necessary to enter into an elaborate discussion of the various kinds of drawing instruments, since the purchaser can obtain a good set of drawing instruments from a reputable dealer by paying a proportionate price, and must <... Examples For Practice
<p>Figure 217 represents a simple example for practice, which the student may draw the size of the engraving, or he may draw it twice the size. It is a locomotive spring, composed of leaves or plates, held together by a central band.</p> <div> <img... Examples In Bolts Nuts And Polygons

<p>In the figures from 308 to 328 inclusive are given three examples in engine work, all these drawings being from <em>The American Machinist</em>. Figures 308 to 314 represent drawings of an automatic high speed engine designed and made by Professor... Examples In Line-shading And Drawings For Line-shaded Engravings
<p>Although in workshop drawings, line-shading is rarely employed, yet where a design rather than the particular details of construction is to be shown, line-shading is a valuable accessory. Figure 295, for example, is intended to show an arrangement... Line Shading
<p>Mechanical drawings are made to look better and to show more distinctly by being line shaded or shaded by lines. The simplest form of line shading is by the use of the shade or shadow line.</p> <p>In a mechanical drawing the light is supposed, for... Lines And Curves
<p>Although the beginner will find that a study of geometry is not essential to the production of such elementary examples of mechanical drawing as are given in this book, yet as more difficult examples are essayed he will find such a study to be of ... Marking Dimensions
<p>The dimensions of mechanical drawings are best marked in red ink so that they will show plainly, and that the lines denoting the points at which the dimension is given shall not be confounded with the lines of the drawing.</p> <p>The dimension fi... Names Of Regular Polygons
