[Histonet] large cryostat chucks

[Gayle Callis]

We have purchased the waffle weave chucks aka specimen disks from Thermo 
Electron, formerly Shandon, and cut off the stems to match length of stems 
on the chucks that come with the cryostat in order  to fit in the holder ( 
they cannot be too long!).  Did this at home myself with a vice and good 
hacksaw!!

These are also available from Electron Microscopy Sciences, go to their 
website, histology products.
