Sample prep question

Search the CONFOCAL archive at http://listserv.acsu.buffalo.edu/cgi-bin/wa?S1=confocal
Sorry group- not a scope question but one of sample prep. Has anyone out there been able to cytospin cells onto No.1.5 coverslips? I want to do this rather than spin them onto microscope slides, for imaging with either my 60X1.42NA or 100X1.4NA oil objectives. I'm sure I might be able to find a way to stick the slips onto the slide and then cytospin, but I wonder if there is a way to cytospin directly onto coverslip.

Thanks very much.
Cheers
Farid
