Morning all!

I need some quick responses to this question:  do you use your fingers or an
instrument of some sort to pull your paraffin ribbons off the block when
sectioning?  For those that do not use their fingers, what do you use?  If
forceps, are these the typical lab forceps or a special type?

Thanks so much!
