  • Chippendale Mirror
    uring the late 18th century, elaborately framed mirrors, known as looking glasses, served as testimonials to the Dwealth of their owners. A looking glass similar to the one shown here would have cost the owner 10 to 12 shillings, a hefty price considering that the average wage for a skilled tradesman of the time was about 6 shillings a day. This is the first serious piece I give my students to make. Be- cause I’m blending a traditional piece into a modern curricu- lum, I don’t go nuts over historical precedence and technique, and I take full advantage of modern machinery. For a small project, this mirror introduces a wide range of skills from basic design and layout to veneering and scrollwork. Each year, my class ends up with a great collection of stunning mir- rors that they present as thank-you gifts to mom and dad for the thousands doled out for tuition. Begin by constructing a two-layer frame Despite its elaborate appearance, this project has only two main parts. The frame, which I make first, consists of a visible mitered molding in mahogany that sits on top of a poplar subframe; sur- rounding it are scrollsawn parts made from a shopmade core with figured veneer (in this case makore) as the face veneer and plain veneer on the back. The common way to build a frame is to use 3⁄4-in.-thick primary Build a wood and miter the corners. Even when the joints are splined or Chippendale Mirror nailed, this is a poor approach.

  • Patching Old Floorboards
    Patching Old Floorboards SPAB Technical Advice Note Philip Hughes BSc, MRICS (Chartered Building Surveyor) and SPAB Scholar The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings 37 Spital Square London E1 6DY 020 7377 1644 [email protected] www.spab.org.uk Contents An old floor of wide boards – scrubbed or polished for generations and uneven from wear – adds considerable richness to any room in an old building. A floor is one of the principal surfaces of a room, yet ancient boards are often badly abused. Bodged attempts to replace boards are common. Even when replacement is completed satisfactorily, the result will not always be visually acceptable. In addition, replacement of floors in their entirety often takes place unnecessarily. This Technical Advice Note aims to alleviate the problem by suggesting a number of methods by which old boards may be patched or repaired. 1 Introduction ....................... 3 2 Deterioration ....................... 3 3 Lifting floorboards ....................... 3 4 Undulations and gaps ....................... 5 5 Reducing unevenness ....................... 6 6 Repairing a split board ....................... 6 7 Repairing a broken edge ....................... 7 8 Strengthening a weak board ....................... 8 9 Splicing a broken end ....................... 8 10 Relaying old boards ....................... 8 11 Surface treatment ....................... 9 12 Conclusion ....................... 9 13 References ....................... 9 14 Other advice ....................... 9 Cover image: Warmth and richness of a well-repaired old floor.
