To prepare a ground section of bone, start by cutting a thin slice of bone tissue using a saw or a rotary tool. The slice is then mounted on a glass slide, ground down until it is thin enough to be translucent, and polished to create a smooth surface for microscopy. Staining may be applied to highlight different structures within the bone tissue.

I think it's also ok to say 'skating on thin ice'. Another example of its usage (to add to what has already been said above) is if someone is really trying their luck with someone who is at the limits of their patience, they can be said to be skating on thin ice, as the person could just snap.
a path formed by the repeated treading of people or animals.
