Dear Hooa

You said you had a good testing machine which would - I believe you said - draw its load-deflection diagram.

Would you send me particulars of it here?

I find V's. methods of rate test are pretty slow and crude, and they will buy a good testing machine if I tell them of a good one.

Yrs
