Some photos from the EPD removal at the end of run 2018

With experience, careful placement of the lifts, and two persons at least 6' tall, even the West side can be removed relatively easily. It was super-important that Prashanth was there also for the installation in Jan 2018.

I had already noted at the end of the 2017 run that the original four supersectors (SS01-SS04) were not as well wrapped as the ones that followed. I would say they didn't get any worse during the run, so probably we'll leave it alone, but I thought I'd document it here.
There has been some confusion on the actual size of an inner BBC tile. Hopefully this helps.
Until next year, EPD!
