West Bay Work: BBS Arrived, Inspected and ERGO Arm Reassembled
Betsy, Ibrahim
Today we:
- Reattached vacuum tubing for the ERGO arm and tested it on some test glass.
- Tubing is now new (Tygon A-60-F)
- Vacuum was ran and attached
- Crash pad moved from Bonding
- Inspected the BBS and fit-check the flipping fixture and magnet gluing set-up. Did a vague run-through of plan of attack tomorrow for the BBS first contact, magnet gluing and optic handling.
