Large blanks for relatively cheap?

Hi all,
I'm interested in making a big mirror + scope (maybe a bit of aperture fever ) and I'm thinking in the 20-25" range. Does anyone know of a source of say, 25-40mm thick plate or pyrex? At this point it's just a dream but perhaps I'll be able to make up enough for one some day if someone does have a blank they would be willing to sell.
Cheers and stay safe,
Logan

Hi all,

After many years of searching for suppliers of all sizes of large Mirror Blanks, for decent prices, we can now to announce we can quote various materials in large Mirror Blanks.

We are organising a large sea shipment, to keep the prices low.

Let us know your requirements.

Regards,
