Huckerby}11.2.39. Will you please instruct for a mould to be made to produce the attached rubber bushes (TXS.1421). We understand that you have previously made moulds for rubbers of various kinds and know precisely what allowances to make to produce the correct size of rubber. This is extremely urgent, hence our asking you to do the job, and is in connection with B.60 and B.80 crank oscillations. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Swdl.{Len H. Swindell} | ||
