==== Report for week of 4/2 ====

 * We received the SR3 but found Hirose-san had applied the First Contact patterns on the wrong sides, so we took it to Yamamoto-san's lab and Toyama University and re-applied the FC properly. We also bounced a 1064 nm beam off it to verify that the HR and AR coatings were not also swapped (they were OK).
 * We made magnet-standoff assemblies for both SR3 and SRM, and set up for gluing the prisms and magnets. We will attach the prisms and magnet-standoffs on Monday.
 * Hirata-san did inventory of the SR3/SRM payload parts received last week and started on the inventory of screws.
 * Fujii-kun, Enzo and team finished the preparation, adjustment and calibration of the SFs and BFs.
 * Fujii-kun and Yamamoto-kun got the SR3 real time model running.
 * Enzo finished setting up the SR3 and SRM racks. (The SRM rack still lacks a front-end, and power and network connections, but the SR3 is now ready for testing.)
 * Shoda-san worked on getting quotes for the ballast masses, on design of the SRM metal mass, and on splitting the BS model to reduce the load on the front-end computer.

 * 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
