We are today forwarding to you one of our tanks. We should be obliged if you could fit the gauge to this tank & return it to us. Realising your difficulty since visiting the Paris salon, we agree that you modify the existing baffles in the tank to suit the gauge. We suggest that you confine the modification to the minimum & let us have a sketch of what you have done. All we require is a gauge arranged so that we can test its durability & accuracy. If successful, we can then consider an alteration to the tank design. | ||
