You may in other places, where you find most Convenience (as at _i_) make a Square, which may stand you in stead for the Squaring the Face and Stems of the _Punch_ in _Roman_ Letters, and also in many other Uses. And you may make _Gages_, as you were taught before to try the _Counter-Punches_ of Angular Letters; as, A K M N V X Y Z, _Romans_ and _Italicks_, _Capitals_ and _Lower-Case_. But then, that you may know each distinct _Gage_, you may engrave on the several respective _Gages_, at the Angle, A _A_ 4 _&c._ For by examining by the Drafts of Letters, what Angle their Insides make, you may set that Angle off, and make the _Gage_ as you were taught before, in the _Gage_ for the Slope of _Italicks_. ¶. 7. _Of the_ Liner. The _Liner_ is marked E in _Plate_ 10. It is a thin Plate of Iron or Brass, whose Draft is sufficient to express the Shape. The Use of it is on the under-edge _a b_ (which is about three Inches long) and is made truly straight, and pretty sharp or fine; that being applied to the Face of a _Punch_, or other piece of Work, it may shew whether it be straight or no. ¶. 8. _Of the_ Flat-Table. The _Flat-Table_ at F in _Plate_ 10. The Figure is there sufficient. All its Use is the Table F, for that is about one Inch and an half square, and on its Superficies exactly straight and flat. It is made of Iron or Brass, but Brass most proper. Its Use is to try if the Shank of a _Punch_ be exactly Perpendicular to its Face, when the Face is set upon the _Table_; for if the Shank stand then directly upright to the Face of the _Table_, and lean not to any side of it, it is concluded to be perpendicular. It hath several other Uses, which, when we come to _Casting_ of _Letters_, and _Justifying_ of _Matrices_, shall be shewn. ¶. 9. _Of the_ Tach. The _Tach_ is a piece of Hard Wood, (Box is very good) about three Inches broad, six Inches long, and three quarters of an Inch thick. About half its Length is fastned firm down upon the _Work-Bench_, and its other half projects over the hither Edge of it. It hath three or four Angular Notches on its Fore-end to rest and hold the Shank of a _Punch_ steady when the End of the _Punch_ is screwed in the _Hand-Vice_, and the _Hand-Vice_ held in the left hand, while the _Workman_ Files or Graves on it with his Right Hand. Instead of Fastning the _Tach_ to the _Bench_, I _Saw_ a square piece out of the further half of the _Tach_, that it may not be too wide for the Chaps of the _Vice_ to take and screw that narrow End into the Chaps of the _Vice_, because it should be less cumbersome to my _Work-Bench_. ¶. 10. _Of Furnishing the_ Work-Bench. The _Workman hath all his great _Files_ placed in Leather Nooses, with their Handles upwards, that he may readily distinguish the _File_ he wants from another _File_. These Nooses are nailed on a Board that Cases the Wall on his Right Hand, and as near his _Vice_ as Convenience will admit, that he may the readier take any _File_ he wants.
