 * Mark, Fabian and Enzo continued BS Test Hang work:
  * 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.
  * 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. This can probably be made up easily by designing the 18 kg of extra mass appropriately.
  * 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 removed the end panels of the IRM to get access to the IM and rearranged the trim mass on the the IM to get it balance to bubble-level precision. (We still need to do fine pitch adjustment with the OL so that the BS is at the right angle, secure the trim mass properly and replace the IRM panels and OSEMs.)
 * Miyakawa-san and Yamamoto-san redid the cabling from the computer room to the PR2 rack and expected to finish by lunchtime on Friday.
 * 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 ====

 * Mark analyzed the QPD data from Friday 12/1 and derived matrices to diagonalize the QPD, and calibrate output in µrad. In the process an error in the IM OSEM diagonalization was discovered: the P and Y gains were low by a factor 2.
 * Mark re-zeroed the QPD after noting the micrometer readings so we can do TFs over the weekend.
 * We prepared for the SR2 gluing:
  * We aligned the SR2 in the box with the wedge on the correct side.
  * We checked that the remachined BS prism holders fit on the PR2 mirror box.
  * We checked that with Tatsumi-san's support ring, the prisms would go on at the right height.
  * We checked the new magnet jigs.
 * We glued ferromagnetic disks in a large number of IM flag tips and flag bases, and in the SR magnet jigs.
 * We also glued SR magnets in the magnet bases.

==== Plan for week of 12/11
 * Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Kozu-kun (Mon-Thu only), Hirata-san, Shoda-san at Kamioka.
 * Mirror gluing.
 * IM assembly and pico test.
 * Assembly frame alignment and optical table centering.
 * Move trolley system from SR3.
 * OL setup.

==== Plan for week of 12/18 ====
 * Shoda-san vacation
 * Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Kozu-kun at Kamioka Mon-Wed.

 * Mark 12/22-1/3
