  The Superconducting RF Test Facility (STF) has been developed at KEK as an R&D toward ILC (International Linear Collider). Hitachi carried out the fabrication of STF cryostat components and in si-tu assembly of cryomodules cooperated with KEK. Our objective is obtaining the manufacturing experience of long cryostats for superconducting cavities. STF cryomodules are designed on the basis of TESLA design. Those major components are : vacuum vessels, support posts, 80K radiation shields, 5K radiation shields, helium gas return pipe, cryogenic piping, cavity helium vessels, RF input couplers, various measurement equipments and sensors. Two units of 6-meter long cryostat are designed to contain maximum eight 9-cell cavities in total. At the first step of the cryomodules, two different types of cavities and some equipments have been carefully prepared and installed by KEK. This paper briefly presents the structural design of STF cryostat components, cryomodule assembly procedures with specially designed tooling, and a summary for the next step.
