Re: [ATM] Newport Glass pre generated blank



We use Newport pregenerated curve blanks for the MidAtlantic Mirror making 
workshop...

we start with 220 for about 7-10 wets and move to
25Micron AlOx, 
12Micron AlOx, 
5Micron AlOx, 
polishing pads/CEOX, 
and then pitch/CEOX.

Over the years this has proven to be a sequence that consistently yields 
highly polished mirrors and a very high success rate of finished mirrors 
during the workshop 

And most of the mirrors are well-figured causing a considerable amount of 
envy.

Start with 320 and short strokes and you will see how well the curves 
match
in a short time. If they aren't matching well you will see zones in the
ground surface. If it looks like you will be taking too long at 320 you 
can
go to 220 or so without having to clean up from the finer grit.

Thank you. I neglected to mention that she purchased a onvex pregenerated 
tool of matching ROC.

We have virtually every grade of abrasive used by ATM's available.
