I feel like I should be able to figure this one out, but I have been having
trouble with getting a ribbon for a while now.  I have a Leica Microtome
RM2125 and I use either a AccuEdge blade (I get one block to cut then it
starts to compress) or a StatCut blade (sections do not stick together at
all), both High Profile.  The angle is about 4 microns.  I change the angle
a lot to see if that makes a difference and it doesn't.  There are so many
factors that could be the issue, I think lack of humidity may be the main
one. So, suggestions please!!
