drawings on p. 324 deal with mechanical features of Chesterfield andKnole settees, and also further illustrate the general constructive principles ofstuff-over framework previously dealt with in a Sheraton arm-chair. The bed orseat frame is illustrated in plan, the inside end rails being necessary to securethe upholstery work, and leave a space at each end for the mechanical actions (seealso dotted line indicating upholstery in sectional elevation).

A part elevation is shown of the back frame, which is dowelled together with a centre rail not shown in the drawing, the outline in this case closely following the finished line of upholstery.
