To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}11/KW.10.12.34. Will you please make the pin joint components detailed on Drawings Nos. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1644, 1645, and 1646. We wish to compare these in efficiency with the existing standard pin joints, which we have found to be very inefficient.
