The _Lye-Trough_ (delineated in Plate 9. at k) is a Square Trough made of Inch-Boards, about four Inches deep, two Foot four Inches long, and one Foot nine Inches broad, and flat in the Bottom. Its inside is Leaded with Sheet-Lead, which reaches up over the upper Edges of the _Trough_. In the middle of the two ends (for so I call the shortest sides) on the outer-sides as _a a_, is fastned a round Iron Pin, which moves in a round hole made in an Iron Stud with a square Sprig under it, to be drove and fastned into a _Wooden Horse_, which _Horse_ I need not describe, because in Plate aforesaid I have given you the Figure of it. The _Paper-Bench_ is only a common Bench about three Foot eight Inches long, one Foot eight Inches broad, and three Foot four Inches high. The _Lye-Brush_ is made of _Hogs-Bristles_ fastned into a Board with Brass-Wyer, for durance sake: Its Board is commonly about nine Inches long, and four and an half Inches broad; and the length of the Bristles about three Inches. To perform the Office of a _Lye-Kettle_ (which commonly holds about three Gallons) the old-fashion’d _Chafers_ are most commodious, as well because they are more handy and manageable than _Kettles_ with Bails, as also because they keep _Lye_ longer hot. The _Tray_ to _Wet Paper_ in is only a common Butchers Tray, large enough to _Wet_ the largest _Paper_ in. The _Weight_ to _Press Paper_ with, is either Mettal, or Stone, flat on the Bottom, to ly steddy on the _Paper-Board_: It must be about 50 or 60 pound weight. For _Pelts_ or _Leather_, _Ball-Nails_ or _Pumping-Nails_, _Wool_ or _Hair_, _Vellom_ or _Parchment_ or _Forrel_, the _Press-man_ generally eases the _Master-Printer_ of the trouble of choosing, though not the charge of paying for them: And for _Paste_, _Sallad Oyl_, and such accidental Requisites as the _Press-man_ in his work may want, the _Devil_ commonly fetches for him. ¶. 22. _Of_ Racks _to Hang_ Paper _on, and of the_ Peel. Our Master-_Printer_ must provide _Racks_ to hang _Paper_ on to _Dry_. They are made of Deal-board Battens, square, an Inch thick, and an Inch and an half deep, and the length the whole length of the Deal, which is commonly about ten or eleven Foot long, or else so long as the convenience of the Room will allow: The two upper corners of these _Rails_ are rounded off that they may not mark the _Paper_.
