Make Your Own Mirror Blanks

Many people who get into ATM also grind and polish their own mirrors – but very few do make their mirror blanks themselves. Mike Davis uses a small kiln to cast his own mirror blanks from plate glass. He even does hexagon mirrors!

What I haven't seen yet is people doing coatings, be it for lenses, be it for dielectric filters – but you never know what amazing things people out there do in their garage.
