However if you want to do it, then yes, do flip the 2 mirrors otherwise the top one will become concave. Flipping two mirrors, will make them roughly flat which is all you need.

Thanks Joe. It is mostly done now anyway, so soon I can go onto rough grinding! Hopefully I don't use all my 80 grit on this!
