| 86099 Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. c. to RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}/WSC.{W. S. Cassel} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.10/MA.2.5.34. 20/25 DYNAMOS ORDER NO.54105. With further reference to RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}/WSC.{W. S. Cassel}12/AP.23.3.34., the D.O. have made an error in their drawing D.54296. The dynamo stampings as shown on this drawing should be .014" instead of the .028". As we have already received Sankeys Stampings we shall be glad if you will therefore, order a further three hundred (300) armature stampings to our drawing D.54296 but with the thickness .014" instead of .028". On the requistion quoted above two hundred-fifty (250) stampings were also ordered from Messrs.Baldwins in their quality No.4 steel we have not yet received these stampings, so we shall be glad if you will cancel the order in their .028" thick sheet and order the armature stampings to drawing D.54434 in their Baldwins Electric sheet steel quality No.5 .014" thick.
