Wheel segment with spout K and an open-sided case
Construction measures for a machine wheel and its housing
This leaf carries construction measures for parts of a machine. A segment of a wheel is drawn with a spout labelled K, recorded as two ounces wide and nine degrees high, while an open-sided case at upper right encloses an axle a b nine degrees thick together with a matching axle opposite it. Further notes fix the side and upper axles and give the wheel's diameter as eight and three-quarter braccia. Additional faded strokes and show-through are present but were not transcribed.

Spout K on the wheel segment
A segment of the wheel is drawn carrying a spout labelled K. The note records that this spout K is two ounces wide and nine degrees high.
Open-sided case, its axle a b and the wheel diameter
An open-sided case is measured: the hollow is three ounces and four degrees high, and the axle a b is nine degrees thick, matched by a companion axle that stands opposite it. The side axles are two-thirds of an ounce thick and the upper axle a n, four degrees, is well nailed and fixed; the wheel's diameter is given as eight and three-quarter braccia.
