Mineral mounting standoffs/risers (Metal)

Metal mineral mounting standoffs/risers

Micro/thumbnail mineral mounting standoffs / risers made from various metals.

Standoffs are used to raise specimens off the base of boxes, to allow you to magnify the details more easily when using a microscope or similar. You can use glue or mineral putty to mount your specimens.

These are a new product for me - typically people used to use dowels or cocktail sticks, but I thought I'd offer some more decorative options.

We sell a few types currently:

• #1 - 8.8MM wide x 8MM tall - ribbed cylinders, intended as beads. The bead holes are 5.3MM, which is quite big, so you'll need quite a bit of mineral tack. Good for the nicest specimens. Sold as a packet of five.
