Bob Royce has an excellent reputation and will make smaller mirrors. http://www.rfroyce.com/ Scott Milligan of Astroverted Optics is another possibility. http://www.astroverted.com/ Or you could try a few laps around the barrel yourself g.

I've been told Mark Harry makes some nice small mirrors. http://members.aol.com/maralees/myho.../business.html But I know from experience that a Bob Royce mirror is about as good as it gets. http://www.rfroyce.com/ Ed T. |

Not to forget Mike Spooner!!! The man is such a perfectionist, it's hard to wrestle a mirror AWAY from him!!! I don't know how SMALL he will go, but if you want a spectacular 8" or larger, you could do a LOT worse... Todd Gross and others might echo that thought... Howard, too... And, yes, I have one, too...

No complaints AT ALL. Crazy Ed |

Yes, I do believe his mirrors are more than good enough. |

Their standard smallest size is 12.5" but they do quote for custom jobs according to the web site: http://www.opticalmechanics.com/ Klazmon. |

Took one kid 2+ years to get his simple 6" f8 straight after multiple screwups. That was posted many times at saa in case you missed it. There have been other complaints also posted at saa. |
