      @mross22 Do you sell only this size (12"*24") ?
      Are the edges polished ?

      IMHO a visible transmittance of 11% is a little bit too less.
      I got my mirror from myspiegel.de with a transmittance of 20%, so for all customers in Europe myspiegel.de will be the right choice if the weight doesn’t matter. Because these mirrors have a thickness of 8mm.
      I bought there a mirror for 75€ at a size of 650x430mm.

        @prototype0815 Thanks for your reply! We only sell 12" x 24" on Amazon in order to help with stocking.

        We are finalizing a website for custom orders (will still be US only) so I’ll edit this comment when that is up and running. In the meantime you can contact smartmirrorkits@gmail.com for custom orders.

        The glass is sanded, not polished, but we can potentially do polished for an additional cost. Point taken about the 20% transmittance being preferable, but 10% produces a pretty good effect too, I have attached a couple pictures showing samples.

        Disclaimer: this is still US only so sounds like myspeiegel.de is a great option for those in Europe.

          Anyone here in Canada?
          I’m looking for a place that’s not too expensive, preferably in Montreal.

          thanks!

              Good morning everyone,
              I am based in London and am looking for a place to buy a glass mirror for my MM project.
              Has one of you ever bought a mirror in greater london or knows a place that sells them?

              thanks and best regards / Dave

                        Hello everyone! Maria with twowaymirrors.com here. We have so many drops we decided to do a price cut on some standard sizes.

                        https://www.twowaymirrors.com/smart-mirror/#standard-size-mirror

                        Awesome pricing for glass that MSRPs around $150 a square foot!

                          @KirAsh4 Hi! I don’t understand how you get 2,000$ for a 22x15cm glass on this site.
                          When I make a simulation, I get something about 25$.

                          Did I miss something?

                          Thanks!

                            @jeremy_fr It should come to around $16.67 for that size mirror. Or we have 8" x 8" samples that can be cut down. Hope that helps!

                              @Try2Fly how is your plexiglass mirror if you put it in bright room? Thinking of ordering at doktor-plexiglas as well.

                                @dajohn in bright rooms it works great. I had it hanging in a darker place, So the refection was not much. So took it off after a while.
                                Also as it is plexiglass, if you order a large mirror the reflection might distort a bit. Mine was about 30x40 cm which was ok.

                                  @Try2Fly thanks for the reply! Good point about the size. I’m planning a larger size (about 50 x 80 cm) so maybe better to go for glass.

                                    @Davepre did you find a good place in London in the end? I’m trying to build some MMs for Christmas and need to get some glass!
