H.M., Art,

I've attached the Excel spread sheet which is probably the most up-to- 
date estimates of the NCSX stellarator core weights. The summary is  
in the  "Field Period Assy Wt." tab.

The VV is ~6.8 kip/period and the PFCs + NBL duct are about 12 kip/ 
period. these should be applied at the vessel support points.

The cryostat is assumed to be 3500 per period applied at the PF5&6  
support brackets.

The remaining 4.5 kip should probably be added uniformly to the MCWF  
shell via an increase in density.
