        Are they both 2-way mirrors?

          Construction wise a framed mirror is the best choice if you want to hide the monitor/computer behind it.

            @Mykle1 nah they are not. Just single sided mirrors for now.

            @broberg I’ll probably do the framed one. I’ll try and start working on it this weekend if I can squeeze some time in. How long would you say it takes to load stuff on the Pi…?

              Oh, you meant the style. I went with the frame as well. I’m thinking the frameless mirror would have to be recessed for full effect. I don’t know what to tell you about how long it will take to load the Pi. I had to learn virtually everything, having had no experience with much of what I as dealing with. If, however, you’re comfortable with linux and such, you’ll certainly have less trouble and devote less time to it than I did.

                @Mykle1 I prefer frameless with the back installed deep into the wall (if possible).

                regards,

                  @Mykle1 and @slametps I was looking at some other’s that were done before and the frame less does look extra clean and I don’t really use that medicine cabinet it’s pretty much empty right now. So we’ll see I’ll do some more research.

                    Nice! Then some of the work is already done for you, if you decide to “bury” it.
