At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
 * With help from Kokeyama-san and Miyakawa-san, we debugged a problem with the real-time model freezing, which turned out to be the IO chassis shutting down because of brownout condition from an overloaded AC circuit. A combination of extra boxes added to the rack, plus surge current from the air shower could draw the full 20 A limit of the circuit. Awai-san ran a cable to a separate circuit and we moved the IO chassis onto that.
 * We got the stepper motor cabling and driver working, and tested the BF fishing rod stepper motor.
 * We got the LVDT cabling, driver and associated parts of the real-time model working.
 * We suspended the BF and payload to check the weight and balance after adding balance mass. The weight was spot-on and the balance was OK (about as expected and close enough to be corrected). However the height and balance of the IM was disturbed again.
 * Fabian worked on the redesign of the ballast masses.
 * Hirata-san found all the parts for the SF and the SF section of the security structure, and prepared the SF. However we then removed the Cu ring from the top cap for recleaning.
 * We worked with Sawada-san to get the wheels removed from the large stepladders so that could be put closer to the assembly frame for comfort and safety.
 * We cleaned up after a water leak from the ceiling.
 * We straightened the hexagonal poles in the bottom level of the security structure, in preparation for adding the new EQ stops for the RM.		 At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Hirata-san, Yoshioka-kun):
 * We reconfigured the top of the assembly frame.
 * We cleaned the assembly frame, blowing dust out of the grooves and wiping all surfaces.
 * We recentered the optic table in the bottom of the frame and adjusted the frame until the top was centered over the optic table. We also recentered the trolleys.
 * We re-installed, centered and leveled the IM.
 * We solved two issues with the new wire clamps:
  * Some holes were not properly threaded - Hirata-san retapped them.
  * Some locating pins were loose - we glued them.
 * We mounted the BS mirror box on the trolley and brought it under the IM.
 * We installed the winch system and the 300 µm wires for the BS.
 * We set up the optical lever.
 * Hirata-san finished the new BF. We moved the old BF out of the cleanbooth and the new one in.

==== Plan for coming weeks ====
Next week:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Readjust height and balance of BF+payload, add SF.
 * Get picomotor driver working.
Week after next:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Continue adding SF and suspend BF.		 ==== Plan for week of 8/7 ====
