In commencing to set out and construct an elliptical headed door frame, width oft. 6in., rise 1ft. 3in. inside measurement, to be made in two thicknesses of 2 1/2-in. and 2-in. stuff screwed together, first set out the head full size on a board as shown in Fig. 1. A mould should be made for half the inside thickness, and one for the outer thickness; from these moulds the stuff should be marked out. It will be seen from the drawing that the outer part of the head is made of three pieces - that is, from A to B, B to C, and Cto D; the inside is constructed of four pieces - from A to E, E to F, F to G, and G to D. The direction of the grain for the outside pieces is indicated in the illustrations. The connection between the head pieces and the posts is fully shown by Figs. 2 to 5, as also the general construction of the head. It will be a stronger job if the pieces are glued as well as screwed together.
