Subject: ETMX optics preparation to be rehanged 

Given the effect on the contrast defect, the consensus at the meeting Wednesday 6-22  was that we should continue to use the existing ETMX optic. 

 
Does this imply that we can simply:
  • Vent
  • Remove the current ETMX suspension, and optic from the suspension
  • Replace the standoffs (and guide rod if necessary), leaving the current magnets in place
  • Re-suspend on the current, existing suspension, with new wire clamps
That is, if we are keeping the current optic, do we gain anything by replacing the whole suspension? Is there any reason to remove and replace magnets? (The wire clamps do need to be replaced, as a groove forms when they are installed.)
 
This could allow us to vent and execute this whole thing sooner. 
 
-Eric Q.
...............................
Yes, I think this is a reasonable approach. Besides the wire standoffs and wireclamps, the only other problem might by a worn groove in the top piece of the suspension (not the clamp piece, but the piece that the clamp holds the wire up against).
 
How about use the current ETM, but put it into the new suspension body with new wire standoffs?
