CHASSIS WEIGHT Written by Mr Nadin on Feb 3rd. 1912. Handed to T.C. on 6th Feb. Mr Royce suggested - that all parts should be inspected for weight by the inspectors, and that limits for this weight should be put on all drawings. -------- It has been arranged that two weights, with limits, will be put on the drawings, - one the rought weight and the other the finished weight. The scheme will be retrospective as regards castings and stampings but not as regards parts made from the bar. X 200 W.M.S. COPY SHOP, DERBY, TEL. 936 W. | ||
