At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
 * We improvised a solution for ballast mass on the BF, using some heavy dog clamps meant for pedestals, washed and wrapped in foil. We we use them for the duration of the BS Test Hang and then swap them out for custom masses.
 * We put back the original BF jacks (replacing the cantilevered jacks that had been borrowed from the SF level to allow access to the BF blade screws).
 * We rearranged the BS rack, closing the gaps between boxes (per request of Miyakawa-san. We also renumbered some boxes, connectors and cables so as to use zero-based numbering (#0, #1, #2,...) throughout.
 * We routed the OSEM cables into the external cable rack (rather than through the PR2 area).
 * We connected up the BF LVDT, and BF fishing rod stepper motor.
 * We installed a signal generator for the LVDT.
 * We connected the super motor driver box to the Internet and attempted to set it up, but with no success so far.
 * We found the final picomotor driver (we have been using the one from TAMA in the clean booth).
 * We found many items that we will need soon, including the copper ring for the SF.
 * We found issues with the digital system (the computer driving the rack had been changed from k1pr2 to k1bs, which causes problems) and worked with DGS to fix them. It now mostly works but the real-time model crashes from time to time.
 
==== Plan for coming weeks ====
Next week:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Thursday.
 * Work on electronics, possibly suspend and weigh BF.
Week after next:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Add SF and suspend BF.		 At Kamioka (Mark, Enzo, Yoshioka-kun):
 * We experimented with rearranging the arc weights to accommodate the magic wands and came up with a suitable scheme.
 * We used spare arc weights as extra ballast on the LBB to get it to float, and measured the height for a known load.
 * We put the blocks back under the LBB and unhooked it.
 * We moved the suspension from the tank back to the assembly frame.
 * We craned the LBB rings down onto the LBB but did not remove them yet. (This however is the last crane work in the tank until reinstallation, so the lid does not have to come off again and the pallet can be used for the PI.)
 * We put the crossbars back in the assembly frame underneath the SF and BF (and corrected an error in the height of the BF ones).
 * Enzo started setting up the SR3 rack (with help from Yamamoto-san).
 * We received the real BS optic and gluing tools, and glued the disks and rods into the modified magnet jigs. We also tried the re-made secondary prisms in the gluing jigs and made shims to hold them more securely.

At Mitaka (Fabian and Hirata-san):
 * Hirata-san shipped the optic and gluing tools to Kamioka.
 * Hirata-san did drawings and RFQs for IM/BF/SF ballast masses
 * Fabian worked on the SRx assembly frame.

==== Plan for week of 7/18 ====
Full team at Kamioka from Tue-Fri, except Hirata-san (Tue-Wed only).
 * Glue prisms/magnets on BS.
 * Dismantle suspension.
 * Finish setting up filter service area (mostly already done by Mirapro).
 * Move BF to filter service area.

==== Plan for week of 7/24 ====
Full team at Kamioka from Mon-Fri, except Hirata-san (Tue-Fri) and Enzo (vacation).
 * Recheck alignment of assembly frame and centering of optical table.
 * Install IM, suspend BS and RM.

Vacation Info:
Hirata-san: Thu 7/20 through Mon 7/24
Enzo: Sat 7/22 through Sun 8/6
Fabian: Fri 8/4 through Mon 8/21
Mark: TBD Mid-Oct
