I forgot to ask. What's the biggest mirror you contemplate coating?
On the one hand, that's a technical q

Good timing of this discussion, I just had a request for an Edwards
High Vacuum diffusion pump manual (model A102)
and while looking at the documentation I have and its source (Joseph
Lucas Ltd, likely the semiconductor manufacturing unit) ) I notice I
have the manual for a high vacuum coating unit

Not quite so long for me, nearer 20, but I suspect that the equipment
was the same age.

I'm playing with the thought of putting a vacuum deposition system
together to coat telescope mirrors with aluminum. It looks like I could
get everything I need from eBay at relatively low cost. Of course,
elements of LinuxCNC could be used to monitor and control the system.
