DANGER!
Be exremely carfeful when dealing with hot wax, as there is
a danger of being burned.
Then, dip the specimen several times in the liquid wax. Allow the wax that
encases the specimen to harden. Use a MicroCut or other small knife or
scalpel to make very thin slices of the object in its wax casing.
DANGER!
Be extremely careful when using the MicroCut, knife or
scalpel. These instruments are very sharp and pose a risk
of injury.
Place the slices on a glass slide and cover them with another slide before
attempting to view them with the microscope.
5.3. Creation of your own preparation
Put the object to be observed on a glass slide and cover the object with a
drop of distilled water using the pipette (12).
Set a cover glass (available at a well-stocked hobby shop) perpendicular
to the edge of the water drop, so that the water runs along the edge of the
cover glass. Now lower now the cover glass slowly over the water drop.
