te the ends of the cleats.

5. Make a T-brace with a nailed cross lap joint from two pieces, one
being 13-16" x 2" x 14", the other 13-16" x 2" x 16-1/2". The long edge
of the T and the leg must be bevelled 13-16" on one side. Fit and hang a
T-brace with a pair of butt hinges on each side of the swing tops.

6. Make two brace cleats and fasten them to the ends of the cabinet, so
that the swing tops are held level and even with the top of the cabinet.

Putting Zinc on the Top:

1. Unscrew the swing tops from the cabinet to put the zinc on.

2. Place the piece of zinc, 27" x 39", on top, extending 1-1/2" over the
edges all around.

3. Hold the zinc firmly in place and make a square bend along the front
edge with a hammer or mallet, bending the edge of the zinc up under the
top.

4. Punch a straight row of holes 1" apart through the zinc and tack it
on.

5. Bend the back edge, punch and tack in the same manner as the front
edge, but be sure the zinc fits snugly on the top.

6. Bend the ends of the zinc the same as before, but be very careful to
fold the corners neatly.

7. Put the zinc on the swing tops in the same manner.

8. Fasten the swing tops again to the top of the cabinet.

Drawer:

The drawer front, 13-16" x 5" x 14-3/8", with lap 3/8" x 1/2" cut out on
the ends.

1. Nail the sides, 1/2" x 5" x 19-5/8", to the lap of the front and to
the ends of the back.

2. Nail the bottom in between the sides 1/8" from the lower edge. This
allows the drawer to slide on the edges of the sides.

3. Put the partitions in the drawer as called for by this plan.

The racks for covers and pie tins shown in the drawings are made from
two pieces, 13-16" x 2" x 4", one piece 13-16" x 2" x 10-1/2" for the
bottom, and two pieces of lath 12" long for the sides. These racks may
be placed on the doors as shown, or may be changed to suit the
equipment.

III Finishing--

1. Set all the nails and putty the holes.

2. Sandpaper the cabinet carefully.

3. Paint or stain and wax the outside of the cabinet, to harmonize with
the surroundings where it is to be used.

4. Paint the inside with two coats of white enamel.

[Illustration: _Fig._ 38.--Cabinet completed]

Before putting on the enamel, apply a coat of ordinary white-lead paint
and allow it to dry thoroughly. If desired, the outside of the cabinet
may be finished in white enamel, though this is somewhat more exp
