Gordon,
Thank you for posting the instructions and photos!
They brought back memories of my student days back in the fifties.
I can recall that one of my colleagues almost lost fingers when the piano
wire broke as he was changing a specimen stub.
Many hours of microtomy practice and even more hours spent hand sharpening
the Heiffor knives!!
I still have two original Wilkinson sword knives in my possession, although
they are a little worse of wear now.
Once again, thanks for the memories.

Subject: [Histonet] Disposable blade holder - amateur microscopist has
nowbeen offered one!
An exceptionally kind member of the list has now offered me a blade holder
that sounds ideal, many, many thanks to him and also to those who sent
nice
messages! One of the emails I received was from a lady who teaches
histology
who was interested in the Cambridge Rocker that I have and she asked if I
could send some photos for teaching purposes. I was very happy to oblige
her
and I was also able to provide a copy of the instruction manual, which I
have never seen online. As I have little to offer the list - other than
questions! - I have given below links to both the photos and the pdf of
the
instructions in case there is anyone else out there who can make use of
them. They've been posted to my webspace as they are HUGE files, the
photos
being taken using an Olympus DSLR and uploaded as full resolution jpgs.
