Re: ATM Glass Advice

Wow!
30" on 1"thick?
That's wonderful.
I've gotten a lot of flack about the possibility of a 20"x7/8".
The purpose of an acheivement is so that someone else may top it with something even more remarkable.

There is a page on the web ring I believe, outlining a 30" mirror on 1"
glass.  Not only that, it was his first mirror.  I've been searching for the
page, but so far I've only come up with references to it.

I also bought a 20" blank from Dan.  The plan is to make a 20" f6, similar
to Ed Taychert's partially folded scope.

out, and going through 80 grit, I've focused my efforts on completing a
grinding machine.
