Hey, I second that motion.
I have a MICROM HM355 S as well.
I use it to cut both paraffin and plastics(undecalcified bone)

Hi:  Another vote for automatic microtomes from me!  I
use a Microm HM355 and it is very easy to use and cuts
great sections from skin to bone.  If you've never
used an automatic before, try one with an open mind
and I'm sure you'll become a convert.  Its so easy on
the arm and wrist...in my opinion every histotech
should be using one.  Good luck in your search, demo
as many as possible.  If you'd like I can refer you to
our great sales rep and service rep.  Have fun, Pam
