Subject: [ATM] Ultra-Thin Edge Support Idea - RE: [atm_free] ULTRA-THIN 30" mirror from Hong Kong


Hi,

I just received this amazing email from the atm_free group. Thank you Wah
for sending this!

What caught my attention was the ring shaped lateral edge support for a 30"
mirror which is only 1" thick. Apparently they managed to prevent
astigmatism using this technique.

The specific web page I'm referring to is:

I'd like to hear from the masses if this idea has merit for really thin
mirrors?

David - you may want to try this?

  This mirror is made by Chanlunlun and his students.
  The tube still under construction...
