The parts of the drawings will be identified by their numerals of reference, which are the same in all views.
1 is the base supported on suitable legs 3 is the floor support on which is superinr posed the floor 31 made up of boards or any suitable material; 4 is the surrounding finishing molding above the base and level with the floor support. 5 is the corner post suitably grooved to receive the glass plates 6, 6 which are retained in place by the usual clamp strips 61 held by screws 62 (see Fig. 3). The lower end of the post-5 extends through the floor support 3 and is supported on the base structure, and gains 51' are cut to retain them in place and thereby give a very neat and economical finish. The c strips are retained in place by wood screws 8. Of course where tl e structure is all me a1, metal screws or bolts are made use of.
