 * Hirata-san:
  * Received many parts from i-ject for BFRM (took pictures and took them into ATC cleanroom).
  * got quotes for PRM/SRM payload from i-ject.
  * Checked quotes and asked for some modifications.)
  * Washed parts (parts for type-A, small hexagons, screws, etc\)
  * Wiped 9 piano wires and sent to Kamioka for PR.
  * pdated Fabian's EQstop parts for BS recoilmass and updated EQstop assy drawings.
 * Fabian
  * Worked out geometry for blade adjustment.
  * Designed additional ballast masses for BS BF (and SR).
 * Mark and Enzo (at Kamioka)
  * Did two rounds of adjustment of the blades with help from Takahashi-san (one for position, one for frequency)
  * Surveyed the position of the rod using the vertical mode of the bubble level.
  * Got apparent improvement as judged at the IRM-IM EQ stops (but still not perfect).
  * Did one more round of blade adjustments (without Takahashi-san)
  * Got good agreement with IRM-IM EQ stops, so put BF cap on and raised the whole system to check for balance.
  * Found balance still fairly bad: about the same on the -X,+Y diagonal and about half on the +X,+Y diagonal (70 and 30 mm worth of motion of a single trim mass respectively; previous a bit over 70 mm each).
  * From the imbalance torques, calculated the offset of rod as 2.3 mm in the direction 22 degrees to the +X side of -Y.
  * Calculated the blade adjustments required: {-0.325194, -1.79175, 2.11695} mm
  * Prepared to apply adjustments (removed cap etc).

==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):

 * We removed the PI from the assembly frame.
 * We encountered a problem with the PI-SF rod jamming in the SF. We finally got it out by clamping a pig of vice grips to the rod and hammering. We found that the receptacle part was the right size (7.0 mm) but had been deformed around the edge. Hirata-san used a knife and sandpaper to lean up the edge and then ultrasonically cleaned it.
 * We cleared space for the PR2 team to remove a bellows from their tank.
 * We installed safety bars near the assembly frame at about waist height for someone on the tall ladder. We reinforced the clamps with cable ties.
 * We removed the LLB blade units from the PI, removed the blades from the clamps and sent the blades away for more rework to fix the length problem. Fortunately the tab section at the tip is fairly long, so we can just add a second hole further from the end.
 * We removed the SF cap and stored it on crossbars within the assembly frame.
 * We tested the SR fishing rod again, but it would only go up, not down. We found that reseting the driver fixed it, but we also moved the driver boxes into the cleanbooth to reduce the length of the motor cables. (Instead, we had to run some long DC and LAN cables.)
 * We adjusted the limit nut on the SF fishing rod to increase the range.
 * We removed one segment of the Cu ring on the SF cap and reconfigured the rest to be symmetrical.
 * Fabian designed a layout for the SF damper ring magnets that would work with the modified Cu ring, and placed the magnets with the template. The poles of the magnets were not on the expected faces so we had to stand the magnets up with the ,

Week of 5/15:
