Hi Werner, I tried the "pillars between" experiment because I had past experience with the Hubble Optics "sandwich" mirrors (3 x 14") and they performed well. Anyway, was to subsequently obtain a large quantity of thicker (35-37mm) good quality plate glass so never had to try any alternative ways of bonding together thinner glass sheets.
