[Histonet] Paraffin Block trimming

[Angela Bitting]

I've been told that they are slower than scraping by hand. What's the consensus?

We have two in our student lab.  It is safer, quicker, and there are a lot 
less paraffin shavings to clean up.

Hi,
    Does anybody use a paraffin block dewaxer ?  If so does it save any 
time, how well does it work?

Thanks,
