 * Mark, Fabian and Enzo continued BS Test Hang work:
  * We installed the BF fishing rod stepper motor adaptor cable.
  * We tried to install the BF LVDT cable but first we encountered trouble routing it, and then several wires broke at the D-Sub end.
  * We laid 6 in-air cables from the tank to the PR2 rank for BF and SF picos, steppers and LVDTs.
  * We lifted the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS section to weigh it and check its balance.
   * It was 195.6 kg, which is 18 kg(!) less than the capacity of the SF.
   * There was a major imbalance in roll: with all four built-in trim masses moved up the +Y end, it still needed 270 g of extra trim mass to be level.
  * Unfortunately when we put the payload, the IM was slightly yawed and ended up on the horizontal EQ stop screws. This let the IM-BF maraging rod go slack, which disturbed the leveling of the IM (because every time it is picked up the maraging rod settles in a different place, giving a different suspension point). We may have to partly disassemble the IRM and rearrange the time mass on the the IM.
  * We shipped BS mirror box parts to Shoda-san and components for a new LVDT cable to Hirata-san.
  * We posed for pictures of the BS by a team from National Geographic.
 * Hirata-san
  * Did parts and fastener lists for the SR payload.
  * Did a 3D model with the SR suspension on the BS assembly frame (to help Mark make adjustments to the frame design).
  * Did 2D drawings of Fabian's concept for BS EQ stop parts.
  * Did a 3D model of a wire clamp with replaceable jaw parts (to avoid having to reuse parts with scars from pressure).
  * Did 2D drawings of a new wire clamps for on top of the BS and SR RMs.
=== Type B (Mark) ===
==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Enzo, Yoshioka-kun):
 * We experimented with rearranging the arc weights to accommodate the magic wands and came up with a suitable scheme.
 * We used spare arc weights as extra ballast on the LBB to get it to float, and measured the height for a known load.
 * We put the blocks back under the LBB and unhooked it.
 * We moved the suspension from the tank back to the assembly frame.
 * We craned the LBB rings down onto the LBB but did not remove them yet. (This however is the last crane work in the tank until reinstallation, so the lid does not have to come off again and the pallet can be used for the PI.)
 * We put the crossbars back in the assembly frame underneath the SF and BF (and corrected an error in the height of the BF ones).
 * We checked the centering of the security frame in the assembly frame and disconnected it from the PI. One M12x35 screw galled after a few turns and will need attention.
 * Enzo started setting up the SR3 rack (with help from Yamamoto-san).
 * We received the real BS optic and gluing tools, and glued the disks and rods into the modified magnet jigs. We also tried the re-made secondary prisms in the gluing jigs and made shims to hold them more securely.

At Mitaka (Fabian and Hirata-san):
 * Hirata-san shipped the optic and gluing tools to Kamioka.
 * Hirata-san did drawings and RFQs for IM/BF/SF ballast masses
 * Fabian worked on the SRx assembly frame.

==== Plan for week of 7/18 ====
Full team at Kamioka from Tue-Fri, except Hirata-san (Tue-Wed only).
 * Glue prisms/magnets on BS.
 * Dismantle suspension.
 * Finish setting up filter service area (mostly already done by Mirapro).
 * Move BF to filter service area, start rebuild.

==== Plan for week of 7/24 ====
Full team at Kamioka from Mon-Fri, except Hirata-san (Tue-Fri) and Enzo (vacation).
 * Finish BF rebuild.
 * Recheck alignment of assembly frame and centering of optical table.
 * Install IM, suspend BS and RM.

Vacation Info:
Hirata-san: Thu 7/20 through Mon 7/24
Enzo: Sat 7/22 through Sun 8/6
Fabian: Fri 8/4 through Mon 8/21
