CHASSIS - GEAR BOX X356T. ---------------------------------- Please receive two blue prints of - N.365 - Countershaft Reduction Gear Pinion N.366 - " " " Wheel. These are a couple of special wheels having 10pitch instead of 10/12, so that these gears can be cut with existing cutters on the Brown & Sharp machine. We should like three sets of these gears preparing. Would Mr Ashby please note that we should like special Brown & Sharp cutters ordering for all the wheels of the small gear box, so that we may use this method of cutting instead of Fellowes, if found desirable.
