      @Try2Fly I work a 10 minute drive away from DokterPlexiglas so I have no troubles with the delivery. I hope that they finish mine a lot faster then they did yours.
      My mirror is bigger then the monitor but I made a woodenframe (spraypaint it black) to cover the mirror where there is no monitor. This works great even with the folie I tested it on (I only used the folie to test it, so please dont ban my guys)

        @Mark me too ;) I picked it up there since I also live nearby. I guess they have a big sheet of it now, so hopefully yours won’t take that long.

          @Mark I do think that a real glass mirror is better than the plexiglas. But that costs more, and for me this is now only a test and see where the project goes. If I am satisfied with the way MM is working and still find it usefull/fun, I might consider buying a glass mirror and building a nicer frame…

            @Try2Fly I tested with the adhesive film, and I am going to try the plexiglas 50x70 cm.
            Let me know, if you have a cheap adres for the glass version.

              @michelleoj Just went onto their site and the price quote for a 24" x 36" acrylic is $270. Am I missing something or have they jacked up their prices from when you bought yours?

                @Mitchfarino Cutplasticsheeting is the company I used for my acrylic mirror.
                It does the job, at a fraction of the cost! Yes it may scratch over time, but for £30 for a 22" I can’t really complain at that!

                  @andy952 awesome!

                  I’m going to go with them then, just wanted to make sure the two way worked well enough.

                  Thanks for your feedback!

                    Hi @andy952 , I’m looking at Cutplasticsheeting now. Do you mind sharing what type of Material and Thickness you used? It seems there are many different kinds. I’m not too handy with acrylic lingo and want to make sure I order the proper sheet. Thanks in advance!

                        Hi,

                        I am also living in France and, for now, I did not find one. I asked to local shop but price was not very cheap. If you find one, I would be glad to hear about ! :)

                        Thanks

                        Alex

                          @evos how big is the acrylic?

                          I’ve seen on larger sizes the image reflected becomes distorted

                                  @bibi by the way i will use a 24" monitor. It would be very nice if you can advise me the size and best mirror specs to place my order :)

                                    This one is also built with a 24" Monitor and a 12 %, 4mm Mirror.
                                    I would recommend this one.
