THE REGISTERED SQUARE.
A simplification of this method is obtained by using the Vincent's Registered Square.
This has been designed in harmony with the teachings of practical experience and does away with the necessity of making puzzling calculations and other complex methods.
It is used in drafting Trousers, Breeches, Vests, Coats, Ladies' garments, etc. Its use in drafting trousers is to draw the seat seam.

The corner A (see diagram) is placed on the fork point of topsides, and the angle line 13 arranged to run level with the fork line.
The seat line is drawn by the long arm. This saves time and calculation as it holds good for all sizes, giving the correct seat angle for both large and small.
If it is desired to give more angle to the seat seam, such as is required for stooping figures, working men, etc., drop the angle line at B below the fork line, but keeping A stationary; this will give more stooping capacity.
If less seat angle is desired, let the angle line rise above B, and the result will be a cleaner fitting seat but with less capacity for stooping.
The price of this Square is 5/-; post free 5/3.
