Re: [ATM] polishing and figuring a 32"

["Bob May" <bobmay@nethere.com>]

You've got better muscles than me!  I'd never consider tryting to move a 30"
or so tool about on a mirror without assistance.
When doing subdiameter work, many people seem to not realize that there is
indeed a need to somewhat evenly spread the rubbing of the two pieces
together is needed to be done.  The thing here is that the glass is removed
(not moved around) at a pretty constant rate and that the polishing needs to
be done in that fashion or the surface gets to be rather odd.
