A specimen processing system is capable of processing specimens carried on slides. The specimen processing system can sequentially deliver slides and opposables to specimen processing stations. The specimen processing stations can use the opposables to apply a series of liquids to the specimens. The applied liquid can be moved along the slide using capillary action while the specimen processing stations control the processing temperatures. The applied liquid can be in a fluid-carrying gap. The opposable can contact the slide to vary a cross section of the fluid-carrying gap.

A charging bar for loading or reloading small arm type shells or cartridges. The charging bar comprises adjustment means for incrementally varying the volume of a powder or shot measuring chamber of the charging bar. Such adjustment means may include a rotational means which causes the volume of the measuring chamber to increase when rotated in one direction and the volume to decrease when rotated in the opposite direction.
