Installation of LAE/HAM1 beam pipe
LukeW and RickS

We started the installation of the beam pipe and shutter/beam dump housing designed by Joe Gleason at UF.

There is a slight alignment issue that appears to be partly due to an error in the clocking of the housing where it mounts to the (double window) viewport adapter.

The housing was intended to mount vertically, but is off by one half hole spacing on the 24-hole bolt pattern of the 10" conflat - 7.5 deg.

Tomorrow, if time allows, we may slot or re-drill the flange of the housing so that it mounts vertically (as intended) and relieves some of the misalignment with respect to the opening in the Laser Area Enclosure (LAE).

For now, the lock and tag for the plug that blocks the opening in the LAE has been moved to inside end of the tube, i.e. inside the Laser Room.
