Making a 33 cm f4.8 mirror on the Mirror-o-Matic 9: Parabolizing 2: Parabolizing
In this video the parabolization of the mirror from start to end is covered. I use (my version of) the Zambuto method. Testing is done with the Foucault test at first, but in the end stages the Bath interferometer is used instead. The Bath interferometer is also used to test the finished mirror
