      Finished my first Magic Mirror build this weekend.
      My build:

      Raspberry Pi 3B
      Older Dell monitor that I had in storage
      Ikea Edsbruk 19 ¾x27 ½ frame

      I built a support frame using 1x2inch boards and attached that to the back of the Ikea frame with 1 inch corner brackets

      I initially tried to use mirror film on the Ikea plexiglass but that was a giant fail so I ended up buying a two way mirror plexiglass sheet from Canal Plastics in NYC.

      Initial programming

      Frame-- I cleaned up the wiring with some zip ties and brackets before securing the support frame to the Ikea frame permanently.

      Final setup… with dog.
