| contd :- -2- (3) We should prefer a joint similar to the Michelin - please submit a design. (4) Will Tangy's please also submit a sample of a brace type handle. We rather prefer a 'T' type owing to the increase in length necessitated by a brace type handle. Owing to the urgency of this matter we do not propose to hold up the jack from production, pending these suggested modifications. The jack therefore should come on production in its present form, and any alterations can be made later. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /A.J.Lidsey. | ||
