      most interesting is: what length is “full length” ?
      From this it depends for sure how to build the frame and how to choose right glass (kind of glass, thickness) …

      Kind regards,
      Ralf

      thanks for pointing that out. By full length I mean around 5 to 6 feet tall so you can see your whole body. I guess you are right that the size makes a big difference in how strong the frame and glass need to be.

        @andrenajolly :-)
        Yes for sure. For a „whole body mirror“ of this length you need a strong frame and a mirror with at least 6mm of glass.
        Here in Germany we do have some shops which are offering these kind of glass in any size but this an expensive fun …

        Good luck!

        Ralf

          @rkorell Which shop did you use for your glases? I’ve ordered mine at glasstar.de, but yes - not cheap!

              @schlomm Yes I had samples from them.

              In the end I‘ve decided to use the monitor in a nice ancient picture frame without any glass.
              So the „mirror“ effect is missing but this fits my usecase better.
              The frame is mounted in our living room and I can see all of the information from every place in the room…

              Warmest regards,
              Ralf
