[Histonet] cut the old paraffin block

[Bartlett, Jeanine]

I also would re-embed it.  Then I would put it in a container of crushed ice to which you have added a little ammonia.

	Dear histonetters,
	
	 I was trying to cut the about 3 years old paraffin today but failed. I keep all my paraffin blocks in file drawer at room temperature. I tried to cut the sample after it was put on ice water for 1hr, 3 hr and even 5 hrs but still feel dry.
	Anybody know why I cannot make it? Any suggestion would be highly appreciated!
	
	Thanks,
	Wendy
