Procedure
(2).
Cover
the
face
with
the
plaster,
beginning
at
the
upper
part
of
the
forehead,
and
spread
it
downwards
over
the
eyes,
which
should
be
kept
firmly
closed,
but
not
in
such
a
manner
as
to
produce
any
distortion
by
too
violent
compression--and
continue
the
plaster
as
far
as
the
lower
border
of
the
chin;
cover
that
part
of
the
chest
and
arms
that
is
to
be
represented,
and
carry
the
plaster
upwards,
so
as
to
join
the
cast
of
the
face;
then
carefully
remove
each,
and
season
for
casting,
by
soaking
or
brushing
with
linseed
oil
boiled
with
sugar
of
lead
or
licharge.
Some
persons
boil
the
moulds
in
the
oil;
and
many,
instead
of
casting
the
face
in
one
piece,
and
the
chest
in
another,
lay
threads
across
the
face
and
up
and
down
it,
leaving
the
ends
out.
As
the
plaster
sets,
or
is
nearly
set,
the
threads
are
pulled
through,
so
as
to
divide
the
cast
into
four,
five,
or
more
pieces.

Procedure
(3).
The
back
part
of
the
head
is
moulded
by
having
an
oval
trencher
sort
of
vessel,
deeper
than
half
the
head,
and
generally
made
of
plaster,
and
boiled
in
oil.
The
back
of
the
head
being
oiled,
and
this
trencher
partially
filled
with
liquid
plaster
of
Paris,
the
head
is
lowered
into
it,
and
the
cast
taken.
The
back
of
the
neck
is
cast
with
the
person
turned
over
on
his
face.
2379.
Procedure
(4).
Each
part
of
the
mould
is
marked
so
as
to
secure
accurate
junction
with
the
adjoining
part
or
parts;
sometimes
with
a
x
or
||,
which,
passing
over
the
junction
of
two
pieces,
serves
to
distinguish
them.
