Hi folks,
   I may just do a conical mirror, 11" f/6.  Newport can provide the blank, with a blind hole in the back.
I am thinking of a 1" hole in which I can bond a nut, like Royce does with his 8 and 10" conicals.
I'd like opinions om what type of adhesive would be best?  I am thinking of some sort of slow-cure epoxy. I will ldo some research
to find one with very little expansion/shrinkage during cure.

Any advice for epoxies which bond well with glass?

Thanks,
Rob
