[Jeff, Daniel]
We dissassembled the 8" to 6" reducing tee from a ~20" long tube (with 6" CF Flange ends) and wrapped the open ends in UHV foil. We also took off two 6" CF flange gate valves from two of these tubes and wrapped the open ends in foil. We put everything except the reducing tee away into the white cabinet with other Holometer equipment. The reducing tee is on the table by the central vessel.
