And then there is the user who drops the sample PLUS depth gauge into the bore....

Another way is to use a round wooden dowel. Those were used quite frequently.
The UCB wood shop has some that fit an empty spinner bore pretty well.
Hardware or hobby stores might have them as well.
For the reverse situation, where users forget the spinner and drop the sample
into the magnet, the same dowels and a loop of double sided tape works for
fishing the sample out.
Both methods had to be used more than once, they are well tested.
