pencils.
 water bath ,blades etc. Most of you are lab Mgr. can you make a educated 
decision
 on your own or you always have somebody make it for you? Get the #2,3, or any
 pencil which works for you  clean the blades with any solvent  which removes 
the
 oil, get any water bath which will do the job. Please make a decision and  
get on
 with it.
