| To G/Rb.{R. Bowen} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.2/MH.{M. Huckerby}13.11.37. 1260 We send you herewith a scheme showing a modified filler on the Wraith radiator. Will you please give us the cost of this compared with the existing Wraith arrangement. The filler cap would be a bakelite (or similar material) moulding without any machining and the approximate cost of the spun thread inset would be 4d. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. | ||
