ATM Supplies in Australia

[boardriderz (Jimmy)]

Hi, I am trying to finish off a 6" mirror that I worked on last year whilst living in Canada, however I contaminated my Lap with some fine grit. So I need to find a new supply of optical pitch to re-make my lap. Does anyone know of any suppliers in or around south east QLD or anywhere else in Australia for that matter.

I am also looking for a 12" mirror blank, hopefully Pyrex or similar and wanted to know it there was any supply locally either new or second hand. I want a full thickness or close as it will be for an Newt. flat or conical?

Thanks

Jimmy

Hi Jimmy

Try Mathew Lovell at Telescopes & Astronomy in Adelaide, lists lots of ATM stuff.
I have no connection with the company , other than that I've purchased stuff from them in the past and possibly the future, or maybe some of the larger Astro Soc./ Clubs that have ATM sections may have some pitch laying around.

Good Luck

Jeff
