Vacuum wand update

[Ted Berg]

Hello All,
    As some of you may be aware we have recently had some issues with 
our vacuum wands. The issue is that the cement that hold the quartz to 
the metal tube seems to have disappeared making the quartz loose to 
rotate.  I have contacted both the manufacturer of the wands and the 
cement manufacturer and they are looking into the issue. The president 
of H-square came out himself, as well as the production manager 
yesterday to look at our setup and to get ideas. Thats customer service.
 They gave us replacement wands to replace those that had issues and are 
continuing to investigate. He also left a cordless battery operated wand 
for evaluation that will be floating around the lab for feedback.  
Please let me know if you have any other vacuum wand issues and i will 
relay them to the manufacturer. ted
