H2 TCS Steering Mirror Mount Fit Check in BSC8:
On Monday, 1/30, Greg and I installed the H2 steering mirror mounting hardware in BSC8.  We found that mounting it on the bottom 3 holes of the BSC flanges, as intended, made the mirror hardware sit on the chamber floor planks.  We also found that the pivot rod,while just long enough to span the chamber and sit in it's mounts at each end, was short enough to allow it to shift and fall out of the mount.  Black marks also came off of Greg's gloves when he installed the viton damping pads.

On Tuesday, 1/31, issues with the install on Monday led me to decide to remove the hardware.  Greg and Thomas worked in the chamber removing the hardware.  They also used IPA and poly wipes to clean the two flanges that came into contact with the viton pads.
