Figure 16-4.—Drawer of cabinet used for filing small original drawings, tracings, and negatives. A   print   larger   than   size   B   is   folded   in accordion-pleat  type  folds  in  such  a  manner  as to ensure that the drawing number is outside after the  print  has  been  folded.  Final  folded  size  should be  8  1/2  by  11  in.  You  should  make  yourself  a plastic  or  plywood  8  3/8-  by  10  7/8-in.  “folding guide”  or  procure  a  ready-made  one.  The  steps in  folding  a  large  print  are  as  follows: 1. First, fold the print into 10 7/8-in. length- wise  accordion-pleat  folds.  Lay  the  print  face- down,  and  start  by  turning  the  edge  containing the drawing number, using the folding guide, as shown  in  figure  16-5.  Use  a  small  block  of wood,  like  the  one  shown  in  the  figure,  to compress  the  crease. 2.  Turn  the  print  over  and  make  the  next lengthwise  fold,  as  shown  in  figure  16-6.  Continue turning  over  and  folding  until  the  width  of  the drawing is used up. 3.  Place  the  lengthwise-folded  drawing  so  that the  side  on  which  the  drawing  number  appears is  down.  Begin  at  the  end  that  contains  the drawing  number,  and  make  the  first  8  1/2-in. crosswise  accordion-pleat  fold,  using  the  folding guide,  as  shown  in  figure  16-7. 4. Turn the print over and make the next fold. Continue until the length of the drawing is used up. Data related to drawings discussed above, such as  correspondence,  should  be  filed  according  to SECNAVINST  5210.11  (series),  or  if  a  limited number  of  drawings  are  affected,  they  can  be  filed by  drawing  numbers  in  a  separate  drawer  or cabinet.  If  a  separate  folder  for  each  project  is Figure 16-6.-Making second lengthwise fold in a large print. Figure 16-5.—Making first lengthwise fold in a large print. Figure 16-7.—Making first crosswise fold in a large print. 16-9
