[Histonet] Paraffin specimen clamp

Hi,

I cut paraffin sections on a Microm HM 355 microtome.  I recently
received some paraffin samples from Europe and they are rectangular
paraffin blocks measuring approximately 32x22x22mm without any plastic
cassette attached to them.  Does anyone know where I may be able to
purchase a different type of specimen holder/clamp that would hold the
paraffin block directly without the need for a cassette?

Unfortunately, I cannot melt the blocks and re-embed them with
cassettes.  

thanks in advance

Dave
