      @andrenajolly - most interesting is: what length is “full length” ?
      From this it depends for sure how to build the frame and how to choose right glass (kind of glass, thickness) …

      Kind regards,
      Ralf

        thanks for pointing that out. By full length I mean around 5 to 6 feet tall so you can see your whole body. I guess you are right that the size makes a big difference in how strong the frame and glass need to be.

          @andrenajolly :-)
          Yes for sure. For a „whole body mirror“ of this length you need a strong frame and a mirror with at least 6mm of glass.
          Here in Germany we do have some shops which are offering these kind of glass in any size but this an expensive fun …

          Good luck!

          Ralf

            @rkorell Which shop did you use for your glases? I’ve ordered mine at glasstar.de, but yes - not cheap!

                @schlomm Yes I had samples from them.

                In the end I‘ve decided to use the monitor in a nice ancient picture frame without any glass.
                So the „mirror“ effect is missing but this fits my usecase better.
                The frame is mounted in our living room and I can see all of the information from every place in the room…

                Warmest regards,
                Ralf
