Toilet Mirror (in-wall build)
-
Finished this project a few months ago… I renovated out toilet, and wanted to make it a little more special than the normal toilets. So, when life gives you flat-screens, yep, you make Magic Mirrors.
Really loved the outcome of this project. Even my wife loves it! She told me I was losing my mind when I bought a perfectly good screen and started destroying the wall. All good now :-)
I’ve also got a Squeezebox client running on the same Pi, so I have network connected music playing in our toilet. Yay for elevator music while taking a dump.
Here are some pictures of the build process :
Making a hole in a perfectly good wall…
All the cables are controllable trough my home made domotica. So the screen turns of with the lights.

That is just an awesome job!! And when ya make the wife happy it just a win win situation :)

Yep! It’s also linked to our shared google calendar, so it shows a nice list with the upcoming birthdays. Score!

@yawns …Lots of planning went into this build because of that. Wanted it to look like an everyday modern wall-mounted mirror. When It’s turned off you can’t notice anything different about it.
All the electronics are accessible trough a flush panel on the other side of the wall, which is just a storage space. Otherwise it would still be possible by removing the 4 screws on the mirror itself. The screen is mounted on hinges, so it flips out to service the back where the electronics are mounted. -
Yes, you can see this was well planned.
