At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
 * Hirata-san and Mark reversed the support ring for the LBB damper to match the reversed suspension.
 * Hirata-san did a trial assembly of the magnet ring for the LLB damper and placed magnets on it with the template.
 * Hirata-san and Mark put the base pieces for the Cu ring in the chamber. However it turns out that the holes for attaching the joint pieces are incompletely threaded and we will have to run a tap through them.
 * We tested the geophones. At first one didn't work at all. This turned out to be a broken wire in one of the in-vacuum adapter cables. For the test we replaced the adapter with an old-style one (and removed the matching descrambler). A second geophone mostly works but saturates at a suspiciously low number of counts at the ADC (2000 instead of 20000).
 * We tested the PI horizontal LVDTs. The #1 (H2) one works but cable swaps showed that #0 and #2 have issues both at the tank end and at the card.
 * We decided on a final location for the stepper and pico drivers on the second floor. We moved the cables for the stepper drivers (using the outside cable trays) and laid new LAN and AC cables for the picos.
 * We recounted the used and spare cables now that the in-vacuum cabling appears to be final.
At Kamioka (Mark, Ohishi-san, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun):
 * We couldn't count for a bubble level, so we removed a service port cover, searched again on top of the BF and found it.
 * We locked the LBB, put the table KOACH filters on the table. Ohishi-san removed the FC in two stages (AR side on Tue, HR side on Fri).
 * Ohishi-san measured the height of the SS and optic relative to the tank and found the optic was 3 mm low but the SS was 2 mm high. According to the GAS LVDTs, the suspension had not sagged but was 1.7 mm high.
 * Therefore we raised the suspension by 9 quarter-turns of the tank jacks (4.5 mm) to get the optic in the right position after (future) downward adjustment of the GAS filters.
 * We put the GAS LVDT calibration data as offsets and gains in the LVDTINF filters so the output would be height in µm relative to nominal.
 * We calibrated the IP LVDTs. We had worked around a mechanical interference due to the poor design of the old LVDTs by setting them to be 4 mm off-center with the IP locked centrally, but we discovered this was overkill and we have lost some linear range on the LVDT sensor in the opposite direction. If we have time we may move the LVDT bases 1-2 mm to a compromise position.
 * We worked with Simon to get the OL aligned and to learn the adjustment procedure.
 
At Mitaka (Hirata-san):
 * Hirata-san met with manufacturers and requested quotes.
 * Hirata-san made many assembly drawings for sections of the SR.
 * Hirata-san worked on compiling the SR inventory.
