Andy,
   
  Can you give any more info on the blank like thickness, weight, current location,
  time frame for desired completion, how deep his pockets are...

An astro buddy of mine is doing a 50" f-8 Cass, has
purchased a 50" pyrex blank from Vaughn Parsons of
Intermountain Optics. Vaughn told him he can't grind
and figure this monster, so my buddy is looking for someone
to help him do the mirrors for the thing. I do
large scopes and mounts (a 37" is in the works) but
don't have any equipment to grind and polish
optical components.

Any suggestions?
