Dear Steve,
Sometimes it feels like you're working with a hockey stick.  I make my own using a glass pipet and an alcohol lamp.  I enjoy working with the celloidin except the coverslipping of 75 micron sections.  I'm wondering if the liquid coverslip would work better,  too many air pockets appear after drying  for a day.

Hi HistoNetters,

We don't call them "hockey sticks", we call them glass specimen
retrievers.  Yes, a glass blower makes them.  And, yes, we sell them.

Best regards,
Steven E. Slap
