Hi all,

I've fairly recently gotten involved in amateur astronomy, and I'm loving it. I've been doing some reading regarding telescope making, and I've come up with the brilliant idea of building a first telescope over the next couple of years as a present for my son (more sentimental than anything else - I know it would be way cheaper to buy something than build it).

I still have a lot of research to do, but can anyone recommend places in Australia which sell ATM supplies? e.g. mirror blanks

Cheers,
Richard.
