Hello Melinda, Alan and Carl,

Thank you all very much for these explanations and the learning 
opportunity.  You folks are great!  I suppose I over worry about things 
when one person orders a mount and another a mount and thin section and 
another just a thin section.  Sometimes a returned mount is not possible 
simply because there was not enough material left on the final mount 
cut.  So, I began to think why a TS would really be needed with my total 
lack of experience on an SEM.

I now have a better understanding about the mounts and thin sections I 
am making.  I did not consider the possibility of further research in 
regards to the thin sections in my thoughts and you all brought that 
into the light for me as well.

Thank you!

Jim
