New 2-way mirror supplier - low prices and lead times

fribse

@ivanov_d Hey Ivanov
That sounds very interesting, how much do you think shipping to Denmark would be, and what is the minimum price, I mean 299 €/m2, if I only get a 50cmx50cm it’s only 1/4 of that, so is there a minimum price for smaller mirrors?
And where do they ship from inside/outside of EU?

Ivanov_d

@fribse There is no minimum price or order. Whatever you need, I will provide :)
50x50 cm would be 74,75 EUR and the shipping to Denmark would be 30 EUR by Bulgarian Post (delivery time up to 7 days) or 35 EUR by DPD (delivery time 3-5 days)

You have a picture from daylight? AS well a comparission to Chriz mirror would be good at daylight.

Ivanov_d

@internetpolice Yeah I could do that, if you don’t mind the fact that Chriz is partly broken :) I will try to post some pictures later.

InternetPolice

@ivanov_d No worrys. I want to see if the reflection is better.

Denis,
do you also ship samples?
Greetings,
Tom

Ivanov_d

@tomster I will try to get some samples but I can’t promise anything.

@InternetPolice Sorry for the long wait for the mirror comparison pictures, but my setup is quite big for a single person to handle so I have to wait for some help to get it off the wall, unhook the power, take it to a bright spot with natural light, put the mirrors next to each other and take some good photos from all angles.

InternetPolice

@ivanov_d Don´t hesitate. Keep the mirror in one peace if it getting critical for you.

Ivanov_d

@internetpolice here is the video that I promised https://youtu.be/IN2Kyfa8_Qc I recorded it at 4K/50p so it should be rich in detail.

@ivanov_d
Thanx for the video, Denis. Looking good!
Are you sure your mirror is 40% transmission? From the video it looks way less…

Ivanov_d

@tomster I am sure. It looks like this because I haven’t dismantled the monitor from the back so the light is not passing through all the way and actually the foil on the back is black, not white as the one used previously. The results IMHO are way better and closer to the look of a real mirror as you can see from the video.

OK, that sounds reasonable. Thank you for clarifying.
If you get the chance to come-by a sample (e.g. 100x100mm) , I’d be happy to order (=pay for) one of those.

@ivanov_d count me in on one.

1,2m x 0,7m shipping to germany

On what basis do you need the input design for the laser cut foil?

Regards
Eldrik

Ivanov_d

@eldrik something like that would suffice:

As for the price, it would be:

2-way mirror with polished edges and laser cut foil as per your drawing, size 1.2x0.7 meters (0,84 sq. m): 251,16 EUR
Shipping to Germany: between 31 and 40 EUR (I have to double check that for you)

eldrik

@ivanov_d ok thx, I will create a drawing and send you a pm.

Hi @Ivanov_d, nice work on the mirror build. I’m about to begin on the hardware + mirror part of the project.

What’s the estimate shipping cost to Tx, USA? (Using the same dimensions of the mirror you have in your bathroom, I’m a fan of that size. https://youtu.be/wqJNxCwOmck) Thanks!

Ivanov_d

@bkost 0.8 x 0.73 (0.584 sq. m) would be $203 and the shipping would be $83. I am not sure about the import duties as I’ve never shipped a mirror overseas, however, I could declare a lower value.

bkost

@ivanov_d Thanks for the quote! With shipping cost, it’s a little out of my budget. I’ll see if I can manage to do a diy build. Thanks though!
