Amos, indication it is the most practical answer. Histology it is a combination
of skills, art, and science.

To:
This is a learned histology skill, but there are some devices which can be used
to align different microtomes available, and you can test your adjustments with
blank blocks. Also newer microtomes have a device on the block holder that
will align the position in the X-Y axis in the zero
A while back I remember someone suggestion something like a right angle
device that carpenters use. It's basically just a piece of metal that is a
right angle triangle that you put up against the chuck and on the knife
mount. Then you align the chuck so it is a a right angle to the knife
mount.
Yes, these used to be available from Newcomer supply, but I think they are now
de-funked. Try a google search perhaps?

Since you have older microtomes, I suggest using an alignment block at each
microtome instead of purchasing the alignment tools. The tools can be found on
the web ttp://www.grale.com.au/products/view/804 , but they can be expensive
(as much as $700.00 each). If you have more than one
Newcomer sells them.

Microm sells a device called a histocollimeter, however, it only attaches to
their microtomes to my knowledge.

I just went to Newcomer Supply to see what you get for $700, not much.
Go to Ace Hardware and get each employee one of these. It will work just
as well and works on any microtome. Buy your staff lunch with what you save.
