==== Report for week of 3/5 ====
 * Mark finished -v2 of the schedule ([[https://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=7779| L1807779]]).
 * We removed the non-vacuum-compatible ballast mass from the BS tank.
 * We secured all the PR2 feedthrough connections with screws.
 * We grabbed an extra empty rack for SRM and set it up next to the one for SR3 (we will add boxes next week).
 * We calibrated the SR2 SF LVDT sensing and actuation, and the FR.
 * We measured the bounce frequencies of the SF with and without the cap, and the bounce frequency of the BF.
 * We put the SF cap on and lifted and weighed the SF/... section.
 * However we were unhappy with how the cap had to be forced on and off and how it lowered the load capacity (≈-433 g) and resonance frequency (0.271 Hz-> 0.23 Hz).
 * We tried the cap left over from B2-3 used in one of the PRs, which was slightly better but still not great.
 * We measured diameter of the original cap (B2-2) and the new one (B2-3). The original cap was almost exactly 700 mm in internal diameter, and the new one was about 0.2 mm wider.
 * We moved the filter building bench and tools into the SRM area and started the rebuild of the two remaining BFs (the one from the BS Test Hang and the one with the tilted keystone).
 * Mark worked on slides for the ASJ and LVC meetings.
 * The SRM mushroom work was postponed due to other demands on the time of Sawada-san-tachi and Mirapro.
==== Report for week of 4/23 ====
 * We hung the optic and set its pitch. The winch system had a lot of slop in it but the technique of relaxing the wires by lifting the optic on the EQ stops was effective in getting consistent results.
 * We tightened the clamps using a torque wrench, using settings of 5 N.m for the primary clamps and 20 N.m for the secondary.
 * We hung the RM and set its pitch. The RM winches were a lot more consistent.
 * However when tightening the clamps, the wire on the +Y side broke at the bottom edge of primary clamp. The wire on the -Y held, so the RM dropped a few mm onto the trolley on the +Y side.
 * We raised the RM trolley to support the RM and left the optic hanging inside it overnight as a safety test.
 * We then reversed the usual installation procedure to remove the RM and get the mirror box around the optic. We used clamp pieces as spacers to bridge the gaps created by the fact that the optic had been raised 3 mm during hanging and could not safely be lowered. We then cut the wires, leaving the op
