BBS01 Installed into BBSS

Ibrahim, Betsy, Oli

Today, we installed BBS01 into the BBSS successfully. 

BBS01 was on a table. BBSS was on the aluma lift. We picked BBS01 using the ERGO arm and slowly came into the optic. In this process, we:

• Removed the EQ stops and replaced them with the glass tips
• Ensured that the gold wire was held correctly about the lower structure barrell
• Made contact between the gold wire and the grooves of the prisms
• Backed the glass tip EQ stops in to contact, securing and locking the whole suspension (M1 and M2 were already locked)
• Installed the BBSS face shields
• Practiced a lift of how it would go up into the test stand
• Placed teflon pads between the lift arms and the BBSS 45 degree lifting bars - LLO did the same (alog 80802) - this helps with fine structure adjustment when below the ISI
• Covered the BBSS on the lift in prep for test stand install (IAS needs time with the ISI to get exact positions in XY for where BBSS will sit).

Wahoo! Congrats, y'all!
