 * Activity report for week of 12/12
  * 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.
 * BF issue
  * The BF has three issues that may or may not be related:
   * The keystone is sitting at an angle, which means:
    * The bottom of the keystone just barely clears the magnet yoke without rubbing.
    * The suspension point for the IM rod is offset, so the BF does not hang level, even with all built-in trim masses moved to their limits (an additional 270 g stacked on the +Y side of the cap is required).
   * The load capacity is slightly less than measured by Hirata-san during tuning at the ATC.
   * The frequency is rather higher than measured by Hirata-san.
  * Also, the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS system is 18.1 kg light (195.6 kg) compared to the load capacity of the SF (213.7 kg).		 === Type B (Mark) ===
==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Enzo):
 * Enzo (with help from Miyo-kun) fixed the broken actuation coil on PI LVDT #0.
 * Enzo worked on the final cabling plan for BS and SRx.
 * Enzo replaced the LVDT driver again to have one with no dead channels (and free up the partly non-working cards for servicing).

At Mitaka and Kashiwa (Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Enzo):
 * We glued magnets into their holders.
 * We did a walk-through of the gluing procedure at Mitaka and discovered that the secondary prisms were missing.
 * We took the mirror box and gluing tools to Kashiwa to do as much of the gluing as possible.
 * Hirose-san applied First Contact to the BS and he and Kieran moved it into the mirror box.
 * We practiced putting sapphire prisms on the BS but didn't apply glue.
 * We tried the magnet gluing jigs designed by Aso-san and found two major issues: the overall length was about 25 mm too long, and there was no adjustment to allow for the wedge.
 * We designed a simple modification to the jigs that hopefully would be trivial for the ATC to do: the jigs will be cut in half and the bottom section will be mounted with adhesive on an 11 mm rod that slides in the central hole of the top section. Thus the top half can be screwed into the existing recess, and the bottom half with the magnets and glue can be allowed to drop about 3 mm onto the face of the optic. Hirata-san worked with ATC to get this done and it should be ready today (Friday 7/7).
 * Hirata-san also got ATC to make some jigs to hold the old 5-mm prisms so that they can be ground down to 3 mm to replace the missing ones. Hirata-san will do the grinding himself today (Friday 7/7/).
 * We decided to continue the gluing work at Kamioka, so we brought the BS back to Mitaka and will ship it on to Kamioka next Tuesday.
 * Hirata-san did a version of the 3D CAD with the as-built BS Test Hang configuration.

==== Plan for weeks of 7/10, 7/17 ====
Mark, Enzo mostly at Kamioka.
 * More TFs.
 * Receive BS at Kamioka, do gluing if possible.
 * Learn how Miyo-kun's pico driver software works and make fixes/improvements.
 * Test picos and steppers more fully.
 * Finish tidying rack and labeling cables.
 
  
Fabian, Hirata-san at Mitaka.
 * Do new 3D CAD (Hirata-san):
  * SR2 on BS assembly frame. (Adjust jack positions if possible, or leave for Fabian/Mark to do.)
  * Final BS build, SS/PI/SF as for Test Hang but with BF/IRM/IM/BS/RM down rotated back to original direction.
   * On-assembly-frame version. (Adjust jack positions if possible, or leave for Mark to do.)
   * In-tank version.
 * Solve arc weight versus magic wand problem.
 * Do mass budget for LBB - design ballast masses (Fabian)
 * Run TFs, make improvements to real-time model (Mark, Enzo).
 * Design SR assembly frame.
 * Inventory for SR.
