Milling of the holes.

The vacuum vessel welded and placed on the milling machine. Underestimated are the planed working hours
and the shrink during welding. This shrink means that the vessel at some points in total length, before final machining,

The aluminium welding is subcontracted at Perfect Fusion (2 Bels Forstall, Cottages Faversham;
