20/25. BALANCE WEIGHTS.

We send you herewith as promised a scheme for
attaching some intermediate half weights to an existing
crankshaft on the Chrysler principle - (Lec. 2936).

Eight of these should be used in conjunction
with four of the weights which were on the 20/25. that HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
brought to WW. on Tuesday last.

The drawing only deals with the means of attachment
and the weight itself requires correction for the magnitude
of the mass.
