[ATM] Specs on Orion mirrors

[JBHillman at ev1.net (Jerry B. Hillman)]

Hi Torquil,
I have an Orion secondary in my 10".  I don't have a problem with quality,
seeing that I only paid $18 for it.  Orion lists their 10" at $299.  For
that you get a $299 mirror. Or go to e-scopes.cc (Coulter Optical ) For $349
you can get a 1/10th pv wave F5 10"  I also have a secondary from them.  It
is worth the $60 I paid for it.
 If you want exceptional, provable quality, contact Swayze Optical.  They
will make you a 12.5" for about $1200. Or a 25" for $6000.
My point is, if you want to buy a commercially made mirror, expect to get
exactly that. A commercially made mirror. That is why we make our own and
that is where ATM'ing started.
Clear skies, Jerry
