1067 646 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.6/MH.{M. Huckerby} 25th. March 1938. Daimler Foundry, Daimler Works, COVENTRY. For the attention of Mr.Harley. Dear Sirs, Thank you for your quotation of 24th. inst. Although this figure is slightly higher than we had hoped, we should like to know the cost of producing the necessary patterns. With regard to the minimum section. Mr.Bailey has agreed to a thickness of .187" with a maximum of .200". In this way he considers that we should be in a position to return castings if the thickness exceeds .200". Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
