@Manmachine it looks awesome. The setup is very clean. I’m beginning to notice that a 24" monitor will do fine for me, they mirrors seem to be a decent size with regular size monitors. How are you powering your Pi?

@SoleLo
Thank you,
The power supply is here at the top of the right side, attached with double-sided 3M tape. cord runs hidden behind Samsung operating panel.

Well done, sir. Congrats!
How old are you?

@Mykle1 although I find the question a bit strange - 52 years old. but I can then ask the simple question the other way round: why ?

I guess I should have said why I was asking, so forgive me. I’m 58 years old, and at one time I was hoping to hold the title of the oldest person to make a MM on this site. There is another user here that is 62, but he has yet to post his completed project. So, for the time being, and assuming that he does post his completed project, I am in 2nd place.
It’s all in good fun. Nice job on your mirror, and welcome to the 50+ club. There are more than a few of us.

Could you tell a bit about the quality of the glass. I have been looking to purchase the same, but I wasn’t sure about the specs of the glass. Is it a suitable product for a magic mirror project?
-
@Manmachine what size frame is that?
-
@SoleLo
Frame edge is 50 mm
Frame outer dimensions 415mm x 585mm
Monitor is 22" -
@mortenbirkelund
interglas.dk deliver their mirrors of high quality. They cut it incredibly accurate, to the spefikationer that I had ordered.I find, however, that delivery costs at the high end
Since I do not have other mirror to compare with. I can not say whether it is a good mirror for the purpose. (But I myself am very satisfied with the result)
