He brokers used lab equipment and while his main area is in hematology and
chemistry lab equipment, he occasionally comes across histology equipment.
He may be able to locate microtomes for you.

One of the departments in the University runs a class each year where they
have the student's process, section and stain a batch of tissues. The
microtome's they use have come from Noah's histology lab on the Ark. The
mechanical workshop tries to keep them functional but they are really beyond
economic repair. Obviously, re-equipping with new for a once in the year
class is not an option and carrying microtome's around the campus is
definitely not the favoured option. Does anyone know of a supplier of
refurbished microtomes in the UK?

Ian.
