[Histonet] FW: cutting a 5um frozen section from a 50um section of brain

[Dessasau III, Evan]

Hi Histonet , I have been trying to cut a FLAT 4 to 10 um frozen section from 50um sections of brain.  Every time I think I have the tissue flat the sections are never in the same plane.  I found a wonderful book in pdf format(A Practical Guide to Frozen Section Techniques, Stephen R. Peters) online with lots of wonderful tips but I'm having no luck implementing the tips.  Has anyone ever tried this?  Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you,
E-van
