Will you kindly note that it has been decided to bolt each of our three Stanton Test Machines to a solid cast iron base 3" in thickness, which will merely rest on the bench. We shall be glad if you will give instructions for the pattern and machining of this base. This job will necessitate drilling the existing base plates of the three Stanton Test Machines, for bolt holes. | ||
