UNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW progress is slow as there are so many other things to be attended to. One gets curious jobs at times. - the agricultural College has just asked us to produce a device to determine the exact time when milk curdles after rennet has been put in it! I hope to ride to fame on the milky way! If you are making a trial model of the new engine it would be best from the point of view of testing exhaust systems to have the timing as stated in example (1) of your report rather than as in (2). Yours sincerely John C. Morrison. | ||
