==== Report for week of 3/13 ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):
 * We took a full set of TFs with the BF stationary but the IRM, IM, RM and TM all hanging.
 * We marked peeling or damaged areas on the clean booth floor for Furuta-san.
 * We installed the SF, measuring its weight in the process.
 * We found the crossbars supporting the SF jacks were too high to allow the SF ring to sit on the pillars while also being partially supported by the jacks. (This was an issue with the 3D CAD - the model of the NB-01 jack had a lower minimum height than reality.) We lowered the crossbars by 5 mm and put thicker spacers (12 mm instead of 3 mm) on top of the jacks supporting the SF and everything worked well.
 * We installed newly cleaned L-brackets under the BF and SF.
 * We installed a new-style cable clamp under the SF. (This was easier with the SF on the security structure, so we had not done it earlier.)
 * We installed the SF-BF rod and hex cable clamp.
 * We suspended the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS section and found it was light, presumably because it had been trimmed according to the Promec measurement of the SF, not Hirata-san's later value.
 * We added extra ballast mass corresponding to the difference and found the BF section floated at a good height.
 * We moved trim mass around on the BF until it hung level, and adjusted the IRM and OSEMs until the IRM-IM EQ stops were well-centered and all the OSEMs were centered laterally and mid-range.
 * We ran 11 extra 20-m in-air cables from the tank towards the rack. (We will need to add 10-m extensions.)
 * We connected most of the cables to the vacuum flanges with screws and anti-feedthrough adapters. (Some remain to be done.)
 * We debugged a 900 Hz ringing in the BF LVDT, which turned out to be because the damping was enabled without appropriate filters or gains.
 * We debugged excess noise in the TM-H3 OSEM, which turned out to be mostly due to a faulty cable. However we worry that some of it may be due to some extensions made of non-vacuum-compatible ribbon cable which we added because the TM-H2 and -H3 OSEM cables are too short.
 * We installed new security structure parts at the RM level.
 * We found all the parts for the lower breadboard suspension, including the blades, blade bases, associated cable clamps etc. We also found the jigs for installing the blades.
 * Fabian finalized the BF ballast mass design and started on the SF.
==== Report for week of 3/21 ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):
 * We took a full set of TFs with the SF stationary but the BF, IRM, IM, RM and TM all hanging.
 * We also did a TF from BF LVDT actuation and confirmed that it was working.
 * We got SUMCON running on Perry's computer and worked out how to do cut-down versions of Fabian's full Type-B model corresponding to the various partial configurations we have data for.
==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
 * We disconnected the in-vacuum and in-air cabling from the feedthroughs.
 * We removed crossbars below BF and SF.
 * We set the SF damper to 4 mm clearance.
 * We adjusted the jacks to nominal height.
 * We removed the geophones and PI yaw stepper for craning.
 * We craned the suspension into the tank, and hooked the LBB Cu ring.
 * We replaced the geophones etc.
 * We unlocked all but the IP and adjusted the jacks until the pendulum was centered in the security structure.
 * We unlocked the IP and adjusted to to center with the jacks and fishing rods.
 * We craned the vacuum tank lid+ring back on, and then removed just the lid (only).
 * We unclamped the LBB damper rings and removed the spacers.
 * We removed the blocks and shims supporting the LBB, inserted the long screw feet and hooked the LBB to the Cu damper ring.
 * We added 2*31.5 kg of ballast to the LBB, which got the blades to the point where firm pressure would depress the tips.
 * We reconnected the in-vacuum cabling. In ≈15 places we opted to omit the Type 1 cable and use a F-F gender bender.
 * We reconnected all but four of the in-air cables.

==== Plan for coming weeks ====
Next week:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday except for Hirata-san Wednesday-Friday).
 * Finish SF installation.
 * Finish BF cabling, hang BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS from SF and confirm weight matches load capacity.
 * Re-trim BF as necessary.
 * Get picomotor driver working.
Week after next:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Prepare for PI installation.
==== Plan for week of 6/26 ====
Mark and Enzo at Kamioka:
 * Double-check where gender-benders were used.
 * Finish connecting in-air cabling.
 * Debug all cabling.
 * Work with Simon to set up LSOL.
Fabian at Mitaka:
 * Design final ballast masses for IM, BF and SF assuming no BF rebuild (needs to be adaptable).
 * Check all items for BS flag/prism gluing are available (prisms, flags, jigs, mirror box, glue, scale, mixing tools etc).
Hirata-san at Mitaka:
 * Do new 3D CAD:
  * BS Test Hang build, with top of tank, full suspension, and LBB damper all reversed.
  * Final BS build, as above, but with everything BF down rotated back to original.
   * In-tank version.
   * On-assembly-frame version. (Adjust jack positions if possible, or leave for Mark to do.)
  * SR2 on BS assembly frame. (Adjust jack positions if possible, or leave for Mark to do.)
