Previous Day

  • Lab in-person: Matt
  • Virtual partner: Derek, Zach
Status Run 74 prep. IVC is pumped out and leak-checked. Fridge and traps are pumped out.
1300 Matt enters lab
1305 Turbo on IVC = 19 nbar
1305 LN2 Dewar is empty, move it to 1st floor for Mike to fill
1315 Attend group meeting
1405 Remove covers from cryostat pit, first putting long 2by4 board through handles to prevent covers falling into pit. Still a bit awkward moving the covers for one person - fall hazard is nontrivial.
1430 Raise main bath most of the way up.
1435 Replace covers over the pit. Again I put the long board through the handles. Mostly used the board to maneuver the cover over the top of the pit, frequently walking over from the north to the south side and back to maneuver it a little further.
1500 Insert and partially tighten MB screws.
1515 Matt exits lab
