I have received a copy of the report from Mr.Clark re the G.E.C. Condenser No.6. I notice the thickness of this Condenser is .450. If these Condensers are accepted this thickness it will possibly mean us having to deepen the cases. The thickness we are building up to is .400. I notice in your General Arrangement F.7384 you give no particular thickness, you state the number of sheets of Tinfoil and Mica that should be used.

Do you think it would be advisable to let G.E.C. know the exact thickness the Condensers should be when finished ? No doubt you could arrange a limit for this job.
