Actually, for a while there were some companies selling molded blanks, but this
was only to save time grinding and polishing. So far as I know, there just
aren't any molding processes yet which can give better than 1/4 wave accuracy
and smoothness. There were also some blanks with the shape roughly ground in
to save the ATM time. I do not know if these are still available or not. I
would think that, in this day and time, our technology would allow extremely
precise molding, but do not know of anyone actually doing it...
