Discussion on "The machining of non-metallic materials" at the Birmingham Section of the Institution

Mr. R. H. YOUNGASH, Section President, who presided: I am quite sure we have listened interestedly to what Mr. Phillips has told us, and it is very interesting to me to realise that other people besides ourselves have troubles. Mr. Phillips´ paper has very largely dealt with how to avoid as well as how to do things. Sometimes we are inclined to think that we individually have all the troubles and get hump-shouldered carrying the weight of the universe, but evidently other people do have troubles. I do not think that you.will be able to, in any way, contest anything that Mr. Phillips has said to-night. I am rather inclined to think that all you will want to do is to ask him questions.
