| A. | Completely finished, ready-to-use standard |  |
| We will make you a completely finished, ready-to-use standard, with each chosen
item mounted, polished, carbon coated and electron beam labelled. You will need to go to the
Instructions page to select the type of mount you want and the items you wish to put in it. The individual items can be chosen from any of the standards accessible from the DYOS home page, and incremental discounts may apply.
These items are then mounted according to the plan you have chosen. They are polished, carbon coated and identifying labels are applied to each one. Naturally DYOS mounts take longer to produce than the "Off-The-Shelf" series, and are more expensive, but you also receive the SPI Supplies
DYOS User's Manual which is
recognized as being the finest in the world. In addition to the information contained in the "Off-The-Shelf" User's Manual, the DYOS User's Manual has a photograph and plan of the mount showing details of each position as seen in the images to the right which show a custom 0.50 inch diameter mount containing three items (Model AST05003-AB): 1. Silicon, 2. Manganese, 3. Cobalt. In keeping with policy of SPI Supplies of incorporating a device for calibrating beam currents into each "Off-The-Shelf" mount, all DYOS mounts now include a Faraday cup. |
| There is a minimum order of three standards when being
put into a finished mount. |

| B. | Loose items |
| You can purchase individual standard items as loose grains for mounting in your own laboratory. This option is only available for certain items
which are mainly those from the CM Taylor collection because of their larger and uniform grain size.
You will receive one grain large enough to mount with care, and a data sheet. Be aware, however, that because of
scarcity, not all standards are available in the loose form. |
| There is a minimum order of three grains if you go with this option. |

Before making your final decision, remember that SPI Supplies is
uniquely set up to do this precision preparation, free of cross
contamination, has the renowned feature of electron beam
labelling, and is recognized the world over
for being the most respected manufacturer of standards for microanalysis.
