[Histonet] Dako autostainer vial storage

[Stapf, Ross]

We always ordered extra of the racks that come with the machine. 

When we had to Shandon Cadenza I made a holder for the small vials by
finding an appropriately sized container and filling it with paraffin.
Then when it was almost cool, I used a vial to make holes in the
paraffin.  The result was a perfectly sized tray.  It didn't look pretty
after a few months, but it was used for about a year.  You could do
something similar.

I'm sure there will be other suggestions as well.

I am just wondering if anyone out there has found a tray that works well
with the reagent vials for the Autostainer - other than the racks that
are used on the machine?  A rack that would allow room for a label would
be preferred - I can't seem to find anything in the plethora of catalogs
that come through the lab!!!  I know there are many users out there -
how are you organizing your antibodies in the refrigerator?
