looks awesome. is that the mirror I supplied? :)
-
@yawns: You are right it is the bathroom right to the master bedroom. The outlets are for the faucets :) The view is really great. Just for you another picture ;)
@Goldjunge_Chriz: Indeed it is the one you have delivered. Took a while to finish it. It was difficult to find someone who could build the frame because there are no L-profiles that did match my requirements.

Ok, now I am officially jealous. I can imagine it’s a dream just sitting there staring outside when the sun goes down. Or ride the bicycle on its stand.
Very nice!

That is beautiful. Well done.

How do you implement using a touch switch which is connected to the metal frame of the mirror? Any tips or instructions?
-
@goprojojo Hi, it is just a touch switch (search for it on Amazon). There is one wire that switches a relais once you touch it. You may know it from desk lamps. If you touch a metal part of the lamp you can switch it on or off.

Super build ecspecialy the thin metal bezel and the total thickness of 2.5cm
Could you post More building pictures and details. I’m looking for something to build like yours 😃 -
Hi MarkV,
what exactly are you looking for? If you have questions about the project just let me know. The wall behind the mirror is a dry construction with space behind where I put all electronic parts (currently just quick and dirty :D ). The plywood is mounted just with screws and some small distance rings to the wall. That is as well an advantage as the mirror cannot fall down and stays small as well it is an disadvantage as it is not easy to demount it (for instance if the monitor has some defect).
The original plan was using some hangers to mount it. I skipped after ordering the frame because it would have been quite challenging to mount it. 5mm I had calculated for that. So behind the mirror I currently have 5mm space which might be good for ventilation.
If I would build a new one I probably would take such a hanger:
regards F.

This looks fantastic! Congratulations.
I’m thinking about making my own magic mirror too and I’ve found BENQ GL2450 monitor and relatively cheap price.However, I have a question that I hope you can give me a few pointers on. How did you manage to get the big backside of the mirror to be so slim? The monitor itself has a large panel in the back, how did you place the back panel boards to make it this slim?
Hope you can help me out by answering. A picture of the backside of the panel would be awesome, if you can take one.

Excellent work. I’m still nervous about the mirror tape adhesive, but to my knowledge nobody has had a problem with the frameless mirrors.
It looks great!
