• Use ~~~~ to automatically sign edits with username, date, and time.

• March 31st: Cleaned the plinth and took photographs of the vacuum components. Available here. -Dan K.

• Oil diffusionTurbo molecular pump was hanging due to the lip falling out of the rubber suspension. Could be cleaned and probably popped back in.

• Broken switch on roughing pump was bypassed internally. Plugging in the outlet should activate the pump. (This pump normally runs 24/7 when the machine is operational.)

• Compressed air needed to get more dust out

• March 30th: Moving complete! The SEM is now in the workshop

• March 29th: Awaiting pick-up and installation (March 29th and 30th).
