This is to confirm your visit to the Foundry of to-day's date, and to state that we will contact Mr. Walker of the Pattern Shop regarding the production of the Supercharger Pattern, detailed on the drawings supplied by the Rover Company. We should like to obtain the full detail drawings of this job as soon as possible in order to ascertain the difficulties that we may encounter in the production of this piece as a sand casting. We shall also be very pleased to receive at your convenience details of the small vanes, that are proposed to be die castings, when we receive either samples or a drawing we shall be able to let you know almost immediately our chances of producing these small pieces satisfactorily.
