[Histonet] Advice on cutting Olfactory sections

[Davis, Gareth]

I am applying for part-time histology job where I will be cutting paraffin sections of the olfactory area of mice.  I've never cut decalcified bone before.  I have cut tissue where I just allow them to float on puddles of warm water (while on slide warmer) and other tissue where I allow them to float in a waterbath before placing on a slide.  But these have to be serial sections, so I don't see them being floating sections. Anyway, anyone's expertise and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Gareth
