  • Pleased to have the parts and a friend with the right machines for drilling it.

    I was pleased with the price, delivery and response to my inquiry. I was disappointed with the machining marks. There were more by the time I finished drilling the screw holes. It is important to drill these with a vertical drill press using a collet adapter and #54 drill. We ended up using a syringe to lubricate the drilling with water using a not-fast (but not super slow either) drill speed. It helps to feed the drill in small steps withdrawing the drill between steps. It is recommended to use a "centering" bit to start the holes. I used a 4-40 tap as it had the best machined and true point. I removed some marks with 400 and 600 wet sandpaper. I used a fabric wheel and a plastic polishing rod (brown) to load the fabric wheel.

  • Amazingly fast rush

    Got the scintillator in a day on the opposite coast. High quality scintillator being used with a photo multiplier to detect cosmic muons. Excellent material with high sensitivity. Easy to polish. Excellent crystal.

  • Exactly what I needed for the Cosmic Watch project

    This scintillator has the right dimensions for the Cosmic Watch project. It just works (scintillation light is created by the muons). The faces are well polished. Fast and reliable delivery to the Netherlands.

  • Works for Cosmic Watch project

    Works in cosmic watch project, just polish and drill it, build the CW boards, and you can detect radiation pretty well, muons very well.

  • exactly the ridiculously specific thing I needed

    I was really worried about how I would find this special sort of plastic, but I was so relieved when I found out this guy sells it even cut to the perfect size and shape! Right on!!

  • Works fine

    Very please with this. I was not so careful as some of the other reviewers. I drilled the 4 holes (for 4-40 machine screws) with a hand drill at the slowest speed. Removing often to cool down and remove debris. Did not bother doing any polishing or cleanup of the plastic. I did use the coupling compound. Results: Oscilloscope shows pulses as described in the design documents. I did a quick histogram of the counts vs millivolts - seems to match what the CosmicWatch design says to should be.
