      Yeah of course I can use a frame, but I don’t want a frame ;) I already have a mirror with a frame! I bought some strong glue and It works perfectly :)

          Or you could present it in the Show your mirror category

              One thing to note: I noticed that the mirror coating on my magic mirror is very delicate. I am not sure if other people have ordered from TAP Plastics.

              Adhesives seem dangerous as it could rip that backing of the foil-like mirror coating right off!

                I completed my box construction yesterday. My solution to the monitor-is-smaller-than-box problem was to build an internal bracing system using a couple of channels for the edge of the monitor. It sounds more complicated than it is.

                Monitor braces:
