You can make a shop-built tablesaw taper jig safer and easier to use by adding a Ys-in.-mick plywood or Masonite shelf to me bottom, and a hold-down clamp and a handle to d1e top. The shelf-and-hold-down combination holds d1e workpiece snugly enough to eliminate the balancing act mat usually accompanies cutting tapers. The combination also lets you push the jig mrough a unit wim your hand far away from me blade. I find mat me system is especially good for tapering narrow table legs. -Joe Voltas, Fall River,

This jig makes it simple to drill screw pockets for securing a tabletop to its apron. Start wim a l-in.-sq. by 4-in.-long hardwood block, and drill a %-in. hole in d1e end of me block as deep as your drill will reach. Draw me profile of me hole on d1e side of me block, and decide how deep and at what angle (usually 25° or so) you want your pocket. Then draw a line across me block to define me pocket, and saw d1e pieces in two along mis angled line. Glue me sawn-off waste onto d1e omer side of me block, as shown, to re-create a square corner. ow clan1p d1e block to a scrap piece, and test-drill a pocket. Trim me end of d1e block to make me pocket deeper, necessary. After you've drilled me pock­ ets in me apron, fmish by drilling screw-shank holes mrough me pockets wim a hand-held drill. -E.G.

Finding the radius of an arc

g the radius of an arc

I've used an alternative to finding the radius of an arc for many years to determine the radius of curvature of cathode-ray-tube faces. By the laws of geometry, A, B and B, C are the sides of similar triangles. Therefore, the ratio of A to B equals the ratio of B to C. In the example in circle 3 below, A B B C; 2 6 6 C; 2 C 36; C 18. After you know that C 18, it is easy to calculate the dian1eter (C 2, or 20) and the radius. -Ray Levy, Soquel, Cal.

Ray: "Well, that's truly an important safety feature. And I hope I didn't sound foolish by failing to recognize the dling as a u-icycle. But it doesn't have any pedals on it." Netley: " o. That's another feature. It doesn't have pedals." Ray: "Well, I guess that's for safety, too. But how does the child move it along without pedals ?" etley: "It's really a whole new concept in tricycles. This little box under the seat is a Simplified rocket engine that propels the trike." Ray: "You mean you put rocket fuel in dlis dling ?!" Netley: " 0, no. othing dlat sophisticat­ ed. It works more like a simple Fourth of July skyrocket. A small charge of gunpowder goes in here. And the child just lights the fuse when he's ready to ride."

Ray: "Well, don't you think it's kind of dangerous for a child three or four years old to be playing around widl matches and gunpowder?" Netley: "Oh, I don't know. I hadn't thought much about that aspect. I suppose a parent could supervise at first-and make dle child aware of any possible danger." Ray: "Well, I suppose. But even so . . .

And, as I said before, dle cor­ ners are rounded off in case the child should take a spill." Ray: "Well, I guess it's okay dlen . . . . " -John Taye, Boise, fda.

Awinged wood helpers finisher's

In the early '40s, I knew atl antiques dealer I'll call Monsieur Leroy who had a store on the south side in midtown New York City. In dle windows of his store, he displayed most­ ly restored, but flashy French atltiques. His interpretation of restoration was to dress up poor imitations with atrocious glossy fin­ ishes and freshly gold-replated hardware (what the French call ormolu). And although each piece had a sky-high price tag, Mon­ sieur Leroy's sales talk, delivered in a heavy French accent, rarely failed to convince pro­ spective buyers- mostly the nouveau riche­ that tiley were making atl excellent invest­ ment by purchasing the item. One day, at an auction sale, Leroy pur­ chased a "sunburst" round clock, about 6 in. in diameter, surrounded by a gold-leafed wood fratlle carved to look like stylized sun rays. Leroy's purchase was a genuine atl­ tique, about 200 years old, and he soon real­ i zed that it had great sales appeal. So, shrewdly, he located atld purchased a dozen atltique clock and barometer meChatlisms dlat would suit a similar frame. Then, he contacted his cabineunaker and had him make a dozen wood fratTIes, all copies of his genuine antique sunburst. I gOt involved in Leroy's little scheme when dle ersatz frames were complete. He invited me to his store, and pOinting to dle brand-new sunbursts, he asked if I could fin­ ish dlem to match the original. Even though I had no real experience with gilding and didn't have the faintest idea how it was done, I assured Leroy dlat I was the best man for the job. But before Leroy agreed, he warned me that one of the most common ways atl­ tique experts detect frauds is by dle lack of "fly specks" in a supposedly aged finish. These spots are usually crudely imitated by unqualified fakers. Jokingly, I assured Leroy dlat I would hire well-fed flies and provide tilem widl fur-lined toilet seats to help me create an authentic finish. Luckily, I was able to locate a very good gilder, atl elderly fellow by dle natne of Szabo. His name atld accent over the tele­ phone assured me that, like myself, he was a H u ngarian. Szabo's shop was only two blocks away from mine, atld he hardly had time to hatlg up his receiver before I walked tilrough his door. I found there a man near­ ing his '80s-a man of power atld compe­ tence, balanced by friendly generosity. After we shook hands, he gold-leafed the first new sunburst franle while I watched. Then we gold-leafed dle second togedler, atld finally, I gold-leafed the dlird while he watched and asserted his uncompromising demands for perfection. In the next few days, I gold­ leafed the remaining nine sunbursts, but I never had a chatlCe to pay back Szabo for his teachings (except maybe through my tears at
