==== Report for weeks of 5/14, 5/21 ====
 * We set up for the F0 blade prototype test.
 * Takahashi-san characterized the F0 prototype blades, and ordered final blades based on the BS and SR mass budgets.
 * Hirata-san characterized the LBB blades and identified three sets with blades of similar strength, plus two weaker ones. However he realized that M12x50 Bumax screws for the blade sets had not been ordered, so he got a new quote and ordered them for delivery 6/11.
 * Mirapro installed the mushroom section of the SRM tank.
 * We added the budgeted amount of ballast to the IM/... section of the SR3.
 * We craned in the BF and cabled and tested the yaw pico, the FR stepper and the LVDT.
 * We hung the IM/... section from the BF, removed ≈200 g of trim mass and rearranged the rest to get the desired height, pitch and roll.
 * We added the sides of the IRM and the IM OSEMs, cabled the OSEMs, and adjusted everything to get good lateral and in/out alignment of the OSEMs.
 * Enzo did TFs using the IM OSEMs and the BF LVDT.
 * We added the BF cap and weighed the BF/... section. We will need to remove the cap again and add about 5 kg of ballast mass.
 * Hirata-san organized getting the LBB damper rings into the SR3 tank. He joined the halves of the Cu and magnet rings and got them ready for craning (which will happen later when we have rebuilt the SR3 IP and have somewhere to park the lid of the vacuum chamber). However he encountered a problem with the top ring: one of the screw holes in the top of the tank is not fully threaded, so one of the pillars supporting the top ring cannot be attached. He is considering various options.
 * Hirata-san and Kozu-kun made rod assemblies for the LBB damper rings.
 * Enzo made a batch of flipping and non-flipping feedthrough adapters.
 * Yamamoto-san connected up the SRM rack.
 * We installed a booth thermometer for the SR3.

==== Plan for week of 5/28 ====
 * Mark, Enzo at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
 * Hirata-san at Kamioka Tue-Fri. (Mon is monthly Mitaka day.)
 * Matteo at Kamioka from Tue. He may help Type B to get experience.
 * Kozu-kun at Kamioka Mon only. (Rest of week is job interviews.)
 * --
 * Hirata-san will modify and clean some Promec masses at Mitaka (making threaded holes unthreaded to allow stacking).
 * Cable and test BF cap picos.
 * Install internal ballast masses.
 * Install cap ballast masses.
 * Build up security structure to SF level.
 * Crane in SF and remove cap.
 * Hook BF and adjust total ballast.
 * Route cables through SF-BF flying saucer up to bottom of SF.
 * Adjust BF trim mass.

==== Plan for week of 6/4 ====
 * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun at Kamioka Tue-Fri. (Mon is NAOJ medical checkup.)
 * --
 * Readjust payload.
 * Take TFs.
 * Add budgeted ballast mass to SF.
 * Cable, test SF LVDT and FR.
 * Characterize final F0 blades.
 * Finish four half-assembled geophones.

==== Plan for week of 6/11 ====
 * Mark Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun at Kamioka Tue-Fri (Mon is compensation day for f2f.)
 * --
 * Rebuild F0 #3 for SR3.
 * Park F0 #1 (for SR2) in top of SR3 assembly frame.
 * Move F0 #3 behind SR3.
 * Make LBB blade sets (or at least 3 of 9).
==== Report for week of 11/19 ====
 * BS
  * Fabian did some debugging on the BS and found that the calibration for the F0 LVDT was off due to an Excel error, and that the sag wasn't quite the 7 mm originally observed, but still enough to cause the suspension to touch down. Enzo tried applying LVDT actuation at the GAS filters and got it to lift off far enough to get sensible TFs, but the required BF offset was enough to put the IM OSEMs at the very edge of their usable range, so this is not a good long-term solution. We can probably raise the F0 keystone during the vent by removing mass and/or installing an auxiliary spring, which will then allow us to return the BF keystone to nominal height.
  * While working on the BS, Enzo noticed that one of the stepper drivers was not responding. It turned out to be water damaged from the rain issues earlier in the year. Enzo and Fujii-kun opened the rest of the BS chassises on the second floor but they seem to be OK. Tanaka-san had made a third driver chassis as a spare, so we reserved that and will install it in the week of 12/10.
 * SRM
  * The SRM-W optic arrived and we installed it in place of the SRM-M in the metal mass, taking care to use 1.4 mm shims as recommended by Hirose-san. The weight of the new assembly was within 1 g of the old and did not disturb the height of the payload. There was a very small change in pitch which we corrected with the IM picos.
  * We installed the shelf for the OL receiver.
  * We added the arc weights and geophones and went through several rounds of improving the centering of the IP and then realigning the security structure back to vertical.
  * We calibrated the F0 LVDT, and checked the F0 and IP actuation signs.
  * We adjusted the SF trim masses to set the SF pitch and roll, did an inventory of the trim mass and set the damper gap.
  * We did a final alignment of the whole chain and left the suspension ready for TFs during the f2f week. There is only a few hours of work left before we can install and we hope to do that on Monday 12/10.
 * SR2
  * Enzo replaced the geophones and cables that had been borrowed for calibration and did several rounds of optimization of the IP frequency. He got as low as 46 mHz but with poor Q and so backed off a bit to 55 mHz and may back off a tiny bit more.
  * I derived updated IP matrices for the BS and SR, with more precise geometry data provided by Hirata-san, and published them as T1707205 and T1807663.
  * I created a CENTERING screen for the IP, with large panel meters for the LVDT signals and the derived L, T and Y signals.
  * Enzo confirmed that the fancy stepper control screen created by Shoda-san worked.
  * We installed a modified LPCD as IM-V for testing.
 * SR3
  * We moved HPCDs from BS and SR2 to replace the ones that had been stolen from SR3, so as to create a working suspension with an OL for Kozu-kun.
