Day 22

Morning
After looking over a few things for the EB upgrade, there was a meeting to throw ideas about a side-fed arc furnace. Puopolo had some previous knowledge of this topic, so he was sharing with Tony, Chris, and Dean. After that meeting, we headed to the EB side and worked on the guns more. I finished cleaning "mine" off using soap and water on the insulator and a wire brush on the remainder.

Afternoon
Reassembly of the gun. Putting new O-rings in and putting the gun back together. Curtis ran it through a pump down station and it held a good vacuum. Tony tore down the third gun, we cleaned it, and then reassembled it. The first gun is now mounted on S7, but some of the bases need to be worked on before the rest of them are good to go.
