Hi Dave,
Looks like you have moved a bit of glass.How do the Graham Loftus mirrors rate in your opinion? there seem to be a number of his mirrors in circulation.Where do you source your glass? Most all the Loftus mirrors are 19mm to 25mm (from what I can ascertain). I have been trying to find a source for thicker suitable glass at a reasonable price, but without success up to this point in time.
Am finding the 25" diameter by 19mm thick float glass mirror (f4.7) a little difficult to figure, but making better progress with a 22" f5.3 of the same thickness. Hope to have the latter up and working in the near future.
Stephen
