Telescope Project - Part 4



The main grinding work is complete on the mirror. I will now need to polish the mirror. There is a small scratch on the surface which looks to be from a piece of tile falling off the tool; fortunately I was working with the mirror on top so it is not terminal. Here are some pics of the tool and the mirror.
