| Mr. Wheeler. Alum. Foundry. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Herewith drawings XR.466 and W2B of the inner and outer diffuser blade which Rover's would like to get die-cast. They would like your recommendations for material if you think there is no difficulty about the job. They point out that any alloy used must be capable of being rivetted. As soon as I get more detail drawings of the diffuser ring, I will send them along to Walker and a copy of the note toyou so that we can get things moving. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Attachments. 2 drawings. | ||
