Hello again Histonetters,

Once again I seek information from all of you out there in Histoland. We are
exploring the possibility of purchasing a bandsaw to cut our femoral heads
in 5mm serial sections.  Is anyone using bandsaws for cutting bone, and if
so, what type?  How is it cleaned/disinfected after use? What safety
precautions are used to protect staff using it from flying particles?

Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Ruth Cazares
