A few members of the Victoria RASC meet in the basement of a member's home once a week to make telescope mirrors. And, eventually, to make the telescopes to house the mirrors. Some nights we just talk, or surf the internet. The Victoria Centre has four concrete based, wooden grinding stands. There are also three barrels with removable wooden tops.
Members supply their own grinding and polishing materials, and mirror blanks.
We hope that the articles below will awaken your interest in mirror making. Build Your Own Telescope by Richard Berry, and How to Make a Telescope, Second Edition by Jean Texereau.
