I found a stainless steel pan measuring about 14" long, 9" wide and 5" deep and
filled it with DH2O. I got it out of the freezer when I arrived at work and by
the time I was ready to face, there was a bit of melt on top of the ice block
that was just right. Adding a bit more DH20 at the end of the day keeps the
surface flat. My successor puts gauze on the ice for more contact of block
surface. I also had two smaller, more shallow stainless steel pans for smaller
numbers of blocks. Restaurant supply stores are a bonanza of ideas for
histology but I found the smaller SS pans on eBay. I inherited the bigger SS
pan. Cheers!
