This sounds very interesting! I'd love to see how this is done.

Why don't we have a mirror grinding party when it's too cloudy for a star party

Sounds good to me!
And if the weather of the past few months is anything to go by, we'll have plenty time to keep ginding until we all have 1/20 wave optics!
Seriously, I think it would be meeting up sometime to see how this is done.

Hi Dave,
Would you be interested in giving us at SDAS a talk on Telescope making ?
Sounds fascinating.
