          Amazing job Jim! It looks absolutely stunning!!! May I ask a few questions?

          1. Firstly could you help me to know where to purchase the glass from?
          2. Secondly, what material did you use to make the flight case, Astroboard? Or another material? 7mm?
          3. Lastly, your frame looks amazing! Is that possible to buy online?

          Thank you in advance!

          Martin

                @scooter Thank you Jim. I’ve ordered my IR now but not sure about how to build a frame. Did you purcase the frame material from a website online that you could share? Thanks again in advance, very much appreciated for all of your help.

                  Hi Scooter, I hope you’re well.

                  I haveing a hard time trying to find the material to build a frame. I would like to build a frame like this one as shown here: https://www.photobooths.co.uk/product/white-silver-magic-mirror-frame/ however can’t find the material anywhere online! It is a very wide frame, approx. 90mm width (very much wider than normal photo frames).

                  Any idea where I can get a length of this material to make into a frame?

                  Any help massively appreciated!!

                  Thanks,

                  Martin.

                    Looks great scooter!

                    Did you use the Pilkington 6mm MirroView mirror or 6mm Two-Way Mirror?

                    Also is it possible to mount the camera behind the mirror?

                    Cheers!

                      @scooter is there anyway you can take pictures / close ups of the LED strip and frame. I just ordered my glass and IR frame curious how you put yours together.

                      also how do you secure the glass and IR fram in the back of the picture frame. thanks

                        @scooter did you write the software yourself?
