3/5: I ran one test this morning but after that the tests wouldn't complete. Jim said I should ask Dr. Jones whether the problem from Friday was solved before doing more tests.

He also said unplugging the cable would not fix the problem of runs not completing.

I practiced fusing again. Last month after Jim worked on the splicing unit I couldn't adjust the left pressure regulator. Today I found that if I pulled the knob up, I could twist it easily.

I polished the sci-fi bundle some more. I picked the end that looked better after the 5 micron grit as the fuse end. I will continue polishing the other end with finer grits, but when I get to the copier paper I want to see if that will improve the fuse end as well as the free end.
