        @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.

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

            @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.

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

                @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 something like that would suffice:

                      b6b871f5-0057-4613-84bf-b99eea8bfb6f-image.png

                      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)

                          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!

                            @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.

                              @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!

                                      The first two mirrors were shipped and received in one piece. I am hoping that the final projects would be shared with us here.

                                      I want to thank Jens and Vojtech for ordering and believing in me. I hope that I delivered goods and services up to their expectations and I also thank Jens for the feedback that when ordering an asymmetric foil you need to agree on what position you are looking at it. Since we didn’t comment that with Jens I assumed the foil design is if you look at it from the back while it was the other way around. It is good that in Jens’ case it would work both ways, but it is worth mentioning here in the thread for future orders.

                                      Once again, thank you for the great communication and I really hope to see your projects completed really soon.

                                      And for the rest, I am open to other orders :)

                                        Hi there,
                                        I want to thanks to Denis, for perfect comunication and really quick responses and delivery :) . Mirror came very well packed. Here are some photos to compare. On left is mirror from Denis, left is SSG Mirastar - or spyglass, that I ordered before. The one from Dennis is much more clearer and dont affect reflecting colors, wich is perfect for me.
                                        PS: sorry for mess in workshop on photos :) 20211111_1316421.jpg

                                            Finally I can also show the mirror I ordered by Denis.

                                            First Denis is an absolute nice person and really cares that you will receive your mirror in one piece!

                                            I ordered a 120x70 cm Mirror that will serve in the bathroom with cutouts for makeup Illumination, a camera hole and of course a cutout for the Info display.

                                            The mirror was really well protected and shipped via dpd with tracking number.

                                            I glued a welded alu frame on the back that consists of 3x2cm L profiles, the 3cm side is glued on the pre applied foil.

                                            The hardware is a rpi 4 with 2Gb and a rpi 2.1 cam and a old Laptop display.
                                            Pi and display are powered with one 48V Poe to 12V 1A adapter and one 48V Poe to 5V 2,4A Adapter.

                                            The Make-up light is made of a 24V powered ultra bright 6000K neutral white led strip.
