X1027 Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}/Ms5/FJ19.2.20. LEATHER TOOL WALLET. With reference to yours Dall/CB6.2.20, on checking over your blueprint of the wallet, it would appear that you have only allowed for one pair of pliers whereas two pairs are now being supplied, one pair of wire cutting pliers and one pair of gas pliers. The gas pliers are a recent addition to Mr. Royce's instructions. If you have only allowed for one pair of pliers, we presume that the second pair will be fitted to the same strap; in which case it is probable that you will require to lengthen the strap which is shown 10¼" long. If you will advise me as th the length required, I will alter the blueprint and forward same. Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}/Ms. | ||
