The adjustment should cause the presence of a greenish-white cone of flame surrounded by a larger body of burning gas, the cone starting at the mouth of the torch.
The flame should be neutral, of the same size as for steel, and used with the tip of the blue-white cone just touching the work.
The torch should be held so that the end of this second cone is in contact with the work, the small cone ordinarily used being kept an inch or an inch and a half from the surface of the work.
The flame should be produced with a nozzle one size larger than for the same thickness of steel and the small blue-white cone should be held from one-fourth to one-half inch above the surface of the work.
If the metal is one-sixteenth inch or less in thickness, the tip of the blue-white cone must be held a short distance from the surface of the work; in all other cases the tip of this cone is touched to the metal being welded.
The flame is formed with an excess of acetylene such that the second cone extends about an inch, or slightly more, beyond the small blue-white point.
The oxygen should be turned on until the two inner flames unite into one blue-white conefrom one-fourth to one-half inch long and one-eighth to one-fourth inch in diameter.
A neutral flame, from a nozzle proportioned to the thickness of the work, should be held with the point of the blue-white cone about one-eighth inch from the surface of the iron.
If this single, clearly defined cone does not appear when the oxygen torch cock has been fully opened, turn off some of the acetylene until it does appear.

Ariadne gave Theseus the thread and the coneto wind it around.
It was fastened to a cone that lay on the ground, and beside thiscone was another--the clue that was to bring him back.
The thread as he held it and wound it around the cone would bring him through all the windings and turnings of the labyrinth.
A cone was on the ground and it had a thread fastened to it.
Such is the case with the cone of Darabgerd, known as Kella Darab, apparently an imitation of a natural mound.
It overcame a deception, resulting from the diminution, which makes a straight-lined cone of very steep sides appear of slightly concave outline.
The elevation of the cone upon a cylindrical base was a certain advance, but its execution was such as to allow of no comparison between the monuments of the two countries.
The Egyptians and the Mesopotamians rejected the cone entirely, and formed, with plane surfaces upon a square plan, the highly monumental pyramid.
The cone of rammed earth was apparently not reveted with stone.

The innermost and smallest ring is completely lighted, and forms the origin of the cone of rays entering the image-space.
The base of the cone of rays for the points of this section of the object-space is no longer a circle but a two-cornered curve which arises from the object-point by the projection of the entrance luke on the entrance pupil.
Similarly there is a corresponding smallest ring in the object-space which limits the entering cone of rays.
