7/18: The piece of sponge gasket for gripping fibers was missing today. I may have lost it while cleaning up the fusing work station today. Andrew made a new one.

7/19: Sci-Fi bundle 6 was left out of the storage box overnight one night this week. We need to avoid repeating this mistake.

7/24: I measured bundle 401 on the popsicle stick. Bundle positions 16 to 30 are 6.81 mm wide including the Kapton. Measuring at positions 1 to 15, the bundle is 12.43 mm wide including the Kapton. The bundle is around 10 mm high, as it should be.

7/25: Because the tests on bundle 401 after fusing were significantly lower than before fusing, I inspected the fibers whose transmission dropped the most. I did not see any signs of damage or poor fuse quality, however.

7/30: For answering the questions from Richard and Jim, see the All Tests sheet in 401 Stage 2 Tests 1.
