In addition to demonstrating unusual skill in the production of a product entirely unrelated to cameras, e ngineers and production m en at the plant have also been able to pass on new assembly methods, improved models, and many valuable ideas for redesigning gear-shaping ma­ chinery, to other companies simi­ larly engaged. Experts of the com­ panies have made frequent visits to Camera Works to study the manufacturing methods used there. The importance of differentials becomes a pparent when one con­ siders the numerous intricate and vital mHitary devices which use them.
