Hello,
Can anyone provide any additional information regarding microtome aligners?
Do they work? I have never used or seen this particular tool, so which brand
works
best? I know of only one company that sells a microtome aligner (universal
type).
Any information any one can provide will be
They do work. I saw one at NSH some years ago and came home and had the guys in
our shop make one for me exactly like the one I saw and it cost next to
nothing. We bought the little round level at home depot.

Save your money and use a blank paraffin block.

I used an even cheaper version of the aligner. My microtome service
engineer suggested an L level or a T level that you can buy at Home
Depot. The L looks just like an L, it is actually a right angle measuring
device, used to make sure the corners or something are straight at 90
degrees.

Hi All, I just want to clarify that the microtome aligner that we are
having issues with is the one made by Advanced Innovations and sold by
Newcomer Supply not the one made by Tech One (Shane Perkins) which
Newcomer also sells. I have had no experience with the device that
Shane is referring to.
