I did not know such a big amateur project was on-going so near from
me (between 20 and 300 km depending on where you are in Belgium :-).
I did not get for sure: do you make the mirror yourself?

As you might know, I am running (well the word is not so well suited,
'cause it is so slow) a comparable project --> 44.6" = 113 cm.
BTW, I am about to resume working on it since a new motor is available
for the polishing machine. Need time and space to mount the motor on the
machine (not before 2 weeks at least).

Anyway: I think we could have interesting exchanges!?

Let us know of your progress to, do you have a site for your project?

Hehe, and extra 1.3"
