Second 'Wedding' of HHG and COLTRIMS

After a short “break-up” of COLTRIMS and HHG chamber and a slight change in position with respect to each other, they are now happily joined back together, matching better then ever. We also upgraded some parts of the HHG source and the “joint” between COLTRIMS and HHG chamber. Check out this post for more information.
