HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}5/KW. 8.4.35.

Light Section 14" Brake Drums.

We have made two new sketches of the above as you requested, and attach copies hereto.

We have decreased the spigot dia. limits at the same time increasing the diameter so that there should be sufficient metal on the brake drums to enable you to make an accurate fit.

We have not stated any limits where you have already machined the drums.
