Making telescope mirrors
I just ran across mention of a website in rec.crafts.metalworking and
thought someone here might enjoy looking at it. Here's a guy making his own telescope, grinding the mirrors with a homemade machine made of an old boat winch. The website is http://lerch.no-ip.com/atm/ Pretty amazing. The metalworking group is also a pretty amazing bunch of people. |

You want to have a look, the guys name is James Lerch and the site is
kosher. Looks like he does all sorts of interesting stuff as he posts on rcm often. Mike Firth wrote: lerch no IP dot com? I don't even want to try it. |
