Hi everyone in Histo land:-)
 
I use the RM 2155 LIEKA,  Auto microtome.  I was in so much pain before I
started using and automatic.  I have been cutting for 35 years and it was
beginning to really hurt.  It takes a while to get used to it and to learn
how to make it cut the way you want it to but, it is worth it.  I cut 3
micron sections with paraplast plus/DMSO.  The sections are free from
wrinkles and tears and it ribbons beautifully.  I am going to have all the
technologists on them in the next 4 years.  Hope you find this helpful.

Hi,
could you give me some comments on automated microtomes (for paraffin wax
sectioning), preferences, pros/cons etc.I would be particularly interested
in any comments from individuals suffering/suffered from RSI/carpel tunnel.
Can you still cut sections using these microtomes with no further problems?
Many thanks,
Terry.
