Cave
Effect.
When
a
Cave
is
constructed
in
the
above
manner,
on
a
large
scale,
and
the
interior
sprinkled
with
powdered
fluor-spar
or
glass,
the
effect
is
very
good
by
candle-light.
2353.
Stalactites.
Stalactites
may
be
represented
by
rough
pieces
of
wood,
which
must
be
smeared
with
glue,
and
sprinkled
with
powdered
fluor-spar,
or
glass.
2354.
To
Model
Caves
in
Cork.
Construct
the
framework
of
wood,
and
fill
up
the
outline
with
old
bottle-corks.
The
various
projections,
recesses,
and
other
minutiae,
must
be
affixed
afterwards
with
glue,
after
being
formed
of
cork,
or
hollowed
out
in
the
necessary
parts,
either
by
burning
with
a
hot
wire
and
scraping
it
afterwards,
or
by
means
of
a
sharp-pointed
bradawl.
2355.
Small
Trees.
If
small
cork
models
are
constructed,
the
trees
should
be
formed
by
transfixing
short
pieces
of
shaded
chenille
with
a
fine
wire
(.),
and
sticking
them
into
the
cork.
2356.
Decoration.
Various
parts
of
the
model
must
be
touched
up
with
oil,
water,
or
varnish
colours;
and
powdered
brick,
slate,
and
chopped
lichen,
or
moss,
dusted
on
as
usual.
2357.
Wooden
Models.
Wooden
models
are
constructed
roughly
in
deal,
according
to
the
proper
design,
and
the
various
fine
parts
afterwards
affixed
with
glue
or
brads.
2358.
Finer
Work
in
Wood.
In
forming
the
finer
parts
of
the
wooden
model,
a
vast
amount
of
unnecessary
labour
may
be
saved,
and
a
better
effect
obtained,
by
burning
much
of
the
outline,
instead
of
carving
it.
By
this
plan,
deeper
tones
of
colouring,
facility
of
operating,
and
saving
of
time
and
labour,
are
the
result.
