Line 6: Line 8:
  * Made BS disposable wire clamp 3Dmodel and drawings.
  * Made ballast mass drawings for BS Bottomfilter and Standardfilter.
  * Made parts list and screw list for disposable wire clamp and ballast mass.
  * Sent drawings and lists to i-ject for quotation.
  * Start to make drawings for SR big parts (optical bench,damper rings,sus wires,cable clamps) - ongoing.
 * Mark, Fabian and Enzo (at Kamioka):
  * Realized that some of the imbalance in the BF was from the fishing rod and calculated a new set of blade offsets to center the rod but leave the torque from the FR to be cancelled by the trim mass for now.
  * Applied the blade offsets and checked that the BF hung as expected.
  * Found that the yoke was rubbing again and corrected it by putting it at an angle matching the keystone.
  * Found that the cables were adding too much stiffness and friction and rerouted them.
  * Found that the GAS was unstable and reduced the compression symmetrically to get 0.37 Hz.
  * Rebalanced the IM to set the right pitch, yaw and height.
  * Tested the IM picos. Unfortunately the pitch pico stuck near or at one end of its range and we will need to take the end plate off the IM to find out what is wrong.
  * Worked on the PR optic removal jig.
  * Worked on getting modified quotes for PR/SR/BS parts.
 * Enzo-san
  * Worked on getting his drivers license.
  * Worked on getting familiar with the Type B circuit diagram.
 * Mark, Fabian (at Kamioka):
  * Tried different strategies for getting the IRM-IM EQ stops and IRM OSEMs to line up simultaneously.
  * Realized that the main problem was that the pitch of the BS had changed relative to the IM (presumably due to slight slippage of the wires) so the IM had to be pitched up by 16 mrad to get the BS pitched slightly down (4.7 mrad).
  * Took the sides off the IRM to get access to the clamps and tightened them to prevent further slips.
  * Rebalanced the IM to be level in pitch (and roll).
  * Reassembled the IRM and aligned the IRM-IM EQ stops - this time it was easy.
  * Adjusted the IRM and RM OSEMs to mid-range.
  * Got Kokeyama's new real-time model working and started TFs.
  
==== Plan for coming weeks ====
 * Mark and Enzo come to Kamioka and work on rack and cabling.
 * Fabian works on design, including SR assembly frame.
 * Hirata-san works on procurement.
