Re: Report N.1144.

I have asked N. to send the cooler casing for the attention of Steadman, in view that N. have had several of the cooler casings crack at the two extreme top corners. There has not been any apparent reason for this. The cooler matrix is not as far as we can ascertain, placing any strain on the cover. Those found cracked have been noticed by a fine weep of water from same.
