We visited the Weston Electrical Instrument Co., yesterday and saw Mr. Davy the Managing Director in respect to the above, and we returned personally to him two of the three instruments recently brought up by their Mr. Smith and he is arranging for these to be modified by :- (a) Reducing the number of divisions on the scale to 20 instead of 40. (b) Modifying the method of fixing the glasses in such a way that it will be impossible for them to work loose. (c) The sides of the instruments to be plated from the point of view of illumination in the instrumen patch. (d) The instrument case to be made more correctly to our drawing dimensions. We have instructed the delivery of these two instrument to us for final approval and he is hoping to send them to us on Monday next. Ha/Wat. | ||
