    Very clever! Excellent job using the opportunity to really stretch the idea. If you wanted, you could build any number of decorative frames and just attach them to the wall around the edge of your existing flush mounted frame. You could even swap them out for various occasions and holidays.

      Great construction work but for me it looks like you glued the mirror the wrong way!?
      From the pictures it looks like the reflecting side of the mirror faces into the cabinet and the “see through side” faces to the dinig room.
      Please tell me I am wrong!

        Is this envy?

        yes, I am feeling envy.

        If only 1 RPI could drive them in sync.

        I love my carousel but would like some static info on the screen. There however is just not enough reliable static space on my 32 in monitor. I do have a second matching monitor that could be mated like yours to have static and a dynamic element. Would be excellent if I could have one screen top\bottom in (mated: mode?)

        Now off to look for a HDMI splitter.

          I like your setup. Thanks for sharing.

          Those two monitors are driven by one Pi? Or one each?

            @Mephiston2K We did check before final installation which way round they were supposed to go, because being 50/50 transmission it wasn’t obvious. We spoke to the supplier who assured us we had it mounted correctly.

            @rak It’s run by two Pi’s, one for each monitor, although we used split power supplies so only needed 2 sockets for the Pi’s & monitors.
