• installation manuals
  • we go through the slides
  • Vito has returned from retirement to dismantle the SMOG
  • how about the soldering of the LEMO connectors
  • should we wear masks to keep the detector clean
  • who puts the centre-frame in the right position? the motion system must be operational. it should be at -6mm (check!) we may have to move the motion system after it is out of the first constraint.
• did Keiran make the tool to fix the base to the flange (hood) for removal? (is there a design)

• we may need a larger beam for the deformed RF boxes.

• badges, cources, access

• check impact
• check apex (the new adams) (apex-sso.cern.ch)
