Please receive herewith 2 revised blue prints of the following: [handwritten: Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}] SCD.1456. Suggested method of casting oil passage holes in Twin Valve Shock Damper. The above has been modified as requested by RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}/Vs{J. Vickers}, with extensions added to some of the oil passage tubes to facilitate location of tubes in the mould. In addition to the length of tubing requested by our previous memo By/Ald.{F. Allwood - Experimental Design}1/AW.18.7.39, we shall now require 1.1/4" length of 3 S.W.G.(.252) round bar, and 4" of 13 S.W.G.(.092) round bar. Attached to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Clm{D. D. Clapham} and RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}/Vs{J. Vickers} copy is a revised blue print of SCD.1456. Will all concerned please scrap their existing copies. [handwritten signature: Ald{F. Allwood - Experimental Design}] By/Ald.{F. Allwood - Experimental Design} | ||
