From January 5 through 8, Bartlett Services installed scaffolding in the
MiniBooNE tank. These pictures show progress during the first day and
a half (when I had to leave). By the end of Day 2, the framing was complete
to the top of the tank. On Day 3, the remaining decking and the planking
on the outriggers were installed. Day 4 was mostly used for cleanup.
Bartlett did a fabulous job for us!
