The Test Stands for the Niton XL2 and XL3t Handheld XRFs

Great video! Very well explained! The test stands are really helpful for measuring small items and for longer measurements of mining or powder samples.

Exactly!

Is there no option for long thin samples? It’d be nice to avoid having to cut a coupon off of a longer bar.

Good question! Handheld XRFs are portable so you don't always need a test stand. However, the Niton XL2/XL3t Desktop test stand has a 14 inch wide sample stage. This is already crazy big. If you're testing things longer, it may not make sense to tests in a stand. If there is a specific sample you are trying to test in a test stand feel free to reach out on alloygeek.com! 😀
