Preston,

Here's a great find by one of our VacuumX Memers and hosted by theSociety of 
Cacuum Coaters.

http://www.svc.org/H/TM9-1501.pdf (16MB)

This is a 1945 War department tech manual on the operation and maintenance of 
optical coating equipment.

Lots of great ideas in there, especially the section on seperating acromats by 
dropping them into 400F oil :0

Take Care,
James Lerch

"Anything that can happen, will happen" -Stephen Pollock from:
"Particle Physics for Non-Physicists: A Tour of the Microcosmos"

" Press on: nothing in the world can take the place of perseverance.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. "
