* <u>Scintillators:</u> The segments cut using the ''Work Stand Assembly'' have an extra millimeter or so in length made by design so that by the end of the polishing process the segment will be of the proper length of 2 cm. That being said, if the fiber is borderline unacceptable, it can still be used provided that enough of the cladding is still intact to leave a sufficient length, once the defective part has been removed by polishing. | * <u>Scintillators:</u> The segments cut using the ''Work Stand Assembly'' have an extra millimeter or so in length made by design so that by the end of the polishing process the segment will be of the proper length of 2 cm.
