==== Past week report ====
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.		 ==== Report for week of 12/25 ====
 * Hirata-san got the L-brackets machined and washed, and installed them on the IM ring bars.
 * Shoda-san recovered the BS from the power outage on 12/25.
 * Miyakawa-san fixed an issue with the SR2 RTM which had prevented it from running.
 * Shoda-san, Hirata-san and Kozu-kun weighed the IM without ballast masses, and then added the lower masses and installed the IM on the assembly frame.
 * They cleaned the assembly frame and installed new jack receptacles on the load gauge adapter.
 * They installed the winch system on the IM, and inspected the clamp pieces for possible scratches.
 * They ran cables for the SR2 steppers and OSEMs.
 * They calibrated the BF LVDT.

==== 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.		 ==== Report for week of 1/4 ====
 * Mark fixed a number of errors with the Type B screens.

==== Report for week of 1/9 ====
 * We weighed the mirror in its box (and later the empty box), and the RM.
 * Fabian worked on the SR2/SR3/SRM mass budget and did an inventory of spare ballast masses.
 * We hung the SR2 and RM.
 * We assembled the bottom section of the security structure below the RM.
 * Hirata-san gave up on waiting for a third quote for the blades and blade parts and started the ordering process.
 * Hirata-san got rod cable clamp parts from Takahashi-san and worked on drawings for the improved BS vertical and yaw adjusters.

==== Plan for week of 1/15 ====
 * Shoda-san at Mitaka making OSEMs.
 *
==== Plan for week of 1/22 ====

==== Plan for week of 1/22 ====
 * Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Shoda-san at Kamioka Tue-Fri.
 * Hang SR and RM.

==== Vacation Info ====
 * Enzo 1/30-2/19 (at Mitaka 1/29, part of 1/30)
 * Kozu-kun 1/29-2/2
