==== Report for week of 1/15 ====
 * We swapped in the other available BF, and it was rather better: only 0.3 mm of keystone tilt rather than 1.3 mm. We will use it for the SR2 and then think about whether we want to use or rebuild the original one.
 * We finished the preparation of the second BF, setting the yoke, adding the new-style cable clamps etc.
 * We changed the 1.6 mm sockets on the BF LVDT cable to 1.0 mm ones to match the pins on the LVDT wires. The specification of the cable in D1503901 was apparently wrong. We will update it (today) before doing the cable order for the SR3 and SRM.
 * We received, unpacked and temporarily stored a shipment of weights and other parts that will be used to check the load capacity of the top filters.
 * We updated the BS real-time model and screens, adding support for a damping filter common to both the OL-TM and OL-IM paths, per Izumi-san's suggestion in G1807653.
 * We set up the router for the SR2 rack and got the SR2_IM pico driver and both stepper motors on the network (the SR2_BF pico is still on order).
==== Report for week of 5/7 ====
 * We inspected the wires and clamps involved in the wire break.
  * The scars on the clamp on the tungsten wire that failed had very different depths, with the one that failed being much deeper, so probably the clamp piece was not completely straight before tensioning. However one wire on the other side was also badly crushed and on the point of failing, so the tension was clearly too much.
  * We decided on new torque specs of 2 N.m for the primary clamps (down from 5 N.m) and 10 N.m (down from 20 N.m) for the secondary. The secondary clamp spec, for M6 screws, is now based on the LIGO policy of using the maximum suggested for the screw and the LIGO value for a coated 1/4-20 screw (100 in-lb = 11.3 N.m), and the primary clamp spec is derated by 2/3 from the spec for an M5 screw because the clamp pieces are recessed and only grip the wire at narrow sections along the edges, concentrating the force.
  * None of the screws showed any signs of damage.
  * All of the scars on the primary clamps were shallow enough that could reuse the clamp pieces. The tungsten secondary clamps were never tightened, and the outer pieces of piano wire secondary clamps were badly scarred but could be reused upside down.
 * We successfully rehung the SR3 and RM. In the process we noticed and fixed an issue with the assembly frame (due to an out-of-date number in the Mirapro diagram, the IM crossbars were set 3 mm too high, which would have affected the wire length).
 * We added the sections of the security structure below the RM and up to the BF.
 * We installed the TM OSEM cables and routed them up to the IM.
 * We installed the load gauge adapter and load gauge and prepared the IM/... section for weighing.
 * We removed the three cracked F0 blades from the PI #3 in the SRM, and prepared for testing prototype new blades in that PI. We removed a floor panel under the PI and set up the filter service trolley underneath it with a stack of masses for a dummy load.
