==== Report for week of 4/9 ====
 * Mark glued prisms and magnet/standoff assemblies on the SR3. The SR3 needed to be raised in the box by 0.7 mm to make the prisms go on at the right height, which was done using M4 washers under the PEEK feet.
 * Mark glued ferromagnetic disks on the last 5 IM flags. This completes 2 sets, for SR3 and SRM.
 * Mark configured two pico motor drivers ordered by Takahashi-san as SR3-IM and SRM-BF.
 * Enzo and Kozu-kun finished preparing and calibrating the SF and BF for SR3 and almost entirely finished with those for SRM.
 * Hirata-san worked on building two IMs for SR3 and SRM. The SR3 one just needs to have flags attached and to be weighed; the SRM needs another few hours work.
 * Shoda-san worked on the design of the metal SRM, on the LBB ballast mass, and on the plans for testing the BS in bKAGRA Phase 1.
==== 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 In the process we noticed and fixed an issue with the assembly frame (due to an out-of-date number in the Mirapro diagram, the IM crossbars were set 3 mm too high, which would have affected the wire length).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.
 * Mirapro installed the SRM mushroom.
