bonding plate glass for mirror blank.Posted By joseph bobick |
Hello all,
I'm planning to make a 16" mirror for a dob and was wondering why I couldn't bond two pieces of 3/4" plate glass together for the blank.I can't find much discussion anywhere regarding this idea and I'm afraid it's probably because it's not a real good idea for some reason.Possibly because of the thermal properties of the glass? could anybody out there shed some light on this Idea.(No pun intended). Thank's.
