Hi Scott,

We have one from Thermo Fisher (Shandon)and love it.  It saves time and
fingers in cleaning cassettes.  I also use it to trim and shape large
blocks for sectioning.  No shavings no razor blades.

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

Thanks,
