| X.2512. Mr. Mills from BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. to BN.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} c. to DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to EFC. By3/P28.5.19. CHASSIS - RE CONDENSERS Will you kindly note that the condenser I instructed you to place on order with an outside firm, for 250 sets, has been stopped, as it has been agreed by Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}, and BN{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}, that it would be better to carry on with the new condenser altogether, This being the case will you kindly stop work on the old type and as quickly as possible replace it with the new scheme. Mr. Day will kindly supply Mr. Mills with the necessary drawings for the above. I consider that we should not wait for experimental work before instructing dies to be made for cutting the tinfoil and mica. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
