Workshop clamps, an anvil and a screw-adjustable frame
Fittings and hand-tools: a clamped anvil, a spring-held file, and a press adjustable by screw
A crowded sheet of mechanical sketches in ink and red chalk, showing clamps, presses, an anvil and other workshop fittings drawn from several angles. The brief notes specify how the parts are held: the anvil is to stand at a stable height and be clamped from below upward, a file is mounted under springs, and a lettered frame is to be firmly fixed yet adjustable in length by a screw. Much of the sheet is drawing rather than text, and further faint sketches carry no transcribed captions.

Anvil clamped from below to a stable height
A note beneath the main mechanism directs that the anvil stand at a stable height and be clamped from below upward. The instruction fixes how the anvil is secured within its supporting frame.
File held under springs
A detail on the left margin of the machine is labelled 'file under springs.' It marks a file mounted beneath spring elements of the mechanism.
Frame a b c d, screw-adjustable in length
The figure in the lower right corner is lettered c a and d b with a clamp between them. Its members a, b, c, d are to be held firmly and made changeable in length by a screw.
