What's up with Quantifoil grids ?

[Hernando Sosa]

Hi,

I wonder from which distributors people are getting quantifoil grids. We 
have gotten them from EM sciences and SPI in the past. However, this is 
the second time that when trying to place an order we are advised that 
they are back-ordered  and that it will take over 6 months to get them 
!!. Trying to get to the quantifoil, web site (www.quantifoil.com)  
gives an error (missing link).
It does look to me that the production of quantifoils is very spotty and 
may be prone to disappear altogether. Is there any alternative (other 
than making your own holey grids with randomly distributed holes).

Regards

Hernando
