[Histonet] Specimen Discs for Cryocut 1800

[Gayle Callis]

You can purchase them from Leica Microsystems, they are the same disks as 
for the 1850.  We found it more economical to buy the waffle weave style 
metal disks from either ThermoElectron or Electron Microscopy Services, and 
cut off the stem to match the length for the disks that have the 
circles.  You can get a dozen of these inexpensively but the stems must be 
shortened.  I guess one could call these the old fashioned metal chucks 
used for paraffin blocks way back when!
