[Histonet] Now HERE's an embedding tamper!
A while ago I posted asking about embedding tampers for Mega molds (whole mount prostate for the most part). There were a few ideas, but not what I was looking for. Finally I found it. Here is an embedding tamper made from an espresso coffee tamper. Stainless steel. Large. Heavy. Fantastic. http://i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh491/tmorken/tamper3_zpscbd10f47.jpg http://i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh491/tmorken/tamper2_zps114d76ae.jpg http://i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh491/tmorken/Tamper1_zpse28869cf.jpg Tim Morken Supervisor, Histology, Electron Microscopy and Neuromuscular Special Studies UC San Francisco Medical Center Box 1656 505 Parnassus Ave San Francisco, CA 94143 USA 415.514-6042 (office) tim.mor...@ucsfmedctr.orgmailto:tim.mor...@ucsfmedctr.org ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet

[Histonet] Leica IPs slide printer
Hi, Leica instruments are usuly over-engineered finickey pains in the neck that work fantastic when they want to but really want to try to fly out the window with troubling regularity. Our IPs has been babied for a long time. The ink on these tends to get really gummy after a while. You are doing it a great service by cleaning it and changing the ink regularly. The problem you are likely having is in the path between the ink and the nozzle. Mike Saia from Belair showed me an awesome trick. It is messy though. Take an old print cartridge and cut a hole in the top. Dump out the ink and clean the hell out of it with ethanol. Then fill the cartridge with fresh 100% ethanol and switch this out with the current cartridge. Prime the pump several times until the black tube in the front clears so you can see fluid passing through it. Then swap out the cartridge again and prime the pump again. It should clean the line. We recently also had our pump die on us. All the cleaning in the world wouldnt have helped. This needed a service call to fix. Belair has been fantastic. If you can get Mike, he is a wiz with these things. Best of luck, Amos -- Message: 9 Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 11:56:29 -0700 From: Erin Sarricks esarri...@gmail.com Subject: [Histonet] Leica IP S Slide Printer To: histonet histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Message-ID: capapk_043ysphss1awx2b0xfwpjl+bo50zrsdv94n7gx2zx...@mail.gmail.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi Histonet, I was wondering if anyone else has problems with their Leica IP S slide printer. We are having issues with incomplete and inconsistent printing. We clean the machine daily before use and have even tried not cleaning it to see if that would help! We also change the ink cartridge every 3 months per Leica recommendation. I'd love to hear from other people who use this machine. Thanks in advance for your help!
