Today in BSC3 - ITMx removal

While teams worked on projects in HAM2, 3, and 5, we started working towards ITMx lower QUAD extraction this morning.  Mark D, TJ, Travis and I spent 2/3 of the work day installing the BSC install arm on the west side of the door on the BSC3.  We then loaded it up with the 5-axis stage and the elevator.  All went well.

Travis and I then went in to start the disassembly of the ITMx suspension, removing top stage BOSEMs, plates, and cams, then lifting and lowering stages in order to make slack on the UIM-Top Mass wire segments.  We added shields everywhere.  Tomorrow Travis will work on decabling the reaction chain lower masses and detaching the wire segments.  I'll redirect effort to the SRM optic swap for the day.
