Single Point diamond turning glass...
While back I heard optics and first surface mirrors are single point
diamond turned on special CNC lathes, than hand figured. Last few months I've been working for an optics company, told my boss about it, but he said it's imposable. Single point diamond can't cut glass, not accurately. I even showed him these web-sites here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond_turning http://www.diamond-turning.com/ http://www.lwoptics.com/precOptAssembly.html http://www.iop.org/EJ/abstract/0960-1317/14/12/013 http://www.siltint.com/Technical/diamond.htm Any one knows more about diamond turning glass and how it is done?
