Improved Holder.

Some Fret Cutters prefer the work held in an upright position. To meet this want, the Improved Holder will be found a capital invention. It can be applied to any ordinary table, at a moment’s notice. It holds the work in an upright position, but at the same time admits of its being turned about as required. The knee is pressed against it when used for heavy work ; otherwise the India Rubber Spring will be found sufficiently strong for holding ordinary Fretwork.

The whole design being cut, the paper is removed by slightly damping and peeling it off. Great care must be exercised to avoid wetting the wood; in case the wood should warp or bend, at any time, one of the following methods will, with care, bring it straight again—viz.: (1.) holding the convex or rounded side a short distance from the fire; or (2) slightly damping the concave, or hollow side only, and placing it under a small weight until it is straight.
