| 1010. EXPERIMENTAL DEPARTMENT. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Clm.{D. D. Clapham}9/JH. 8th. May, 1939. Messrs. Broom & Wale Ltd., High Wycombe, BUCKS. For the attention of Horace S. Broom Esq. Dear Sirs, We want a tool for cutting sheet steel up to .125" thick, and we wonder if you have a pneumatic nibbler which would be suitable. It most of course be portable and as light as possible. Our air pressure appears to be about 70 lbs. per sq.in. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
