Yesterday the mid X (BSC 5) test mass was removed separately from the LOS and stored in a "cake tin". The "cake tin" was wrapped in foil and put on a cart in the back of the optics lab in class A storage. Particle tape samples were taken at four spots in BSC 5.

Today we removed all the remaining hardware except for the isolation stack itself. This included the counter weights, telescope, OSEM connector and LOS. The OSEM cable was cut to remove it. The telescope and LOS are wrapped in foil on a table in mid X.
