We communicated the conclusions to you last week verbally so that you
could commence your 3-month program, completing the construction of the
final machine. At that point, of course, we will fine tune STAT
including setting up a replenishment system, over a period of two months.
You will recall our conclusions were as follows and are taken from the
report below.
1. The first two modules are to be combined into one, maintaining
the same total length of about 20 inches. This will be the developer
module.
3. The fourth module, which we call the fix module, will be increased
in length by 6 inches.
2. The third module, which we call the stop bath module, will remain
the same length.
