| TL X632 Port Said, 20/1/12. Mr Nadin. The enclosed sheets apply to a machine for boring etc. our motorcar cylinders. I would like Mr Moon or Mr Hunt to work at this for a time so that we may judge whether it is worth making or getting made. I have got the main details fairly settled and show some good ideas for details. It should not take long to lay/out a comprehensive machine. I have spent much time and though on it so please do not let it hang fire. F.H.R. [Handwritten vertically on left margin]: X/63 [Handwritten at bottom]: orig. Particulars & drawings handed to Mr Nadin. | ||
