Hi all,
I'm interested in making a big mirror + scope (maybe a bit of aperture fever :lol:) 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
