My 36" Mirror

[Gubert]

Hey guys,
thanks for all your great inspiration.
I got an old 32" TV for free.
Wood isnt my prefered material but i think it looks okay for the first mirror

The main problem starts with the end.
The mirror is quiet heavy (8mm | 80 x 53,3 cm) and because i wont holes in it i need to glue them in any way to the case:

Unfortunately my TV doesnt support HDMI-CEC or anything else that could bring him in standby.
But in the end i do a dirty workaround (black screen) to prevent the to from beeing displayed “no signal” all the time.

The mirror has following specs:

• Berechnung nach EN410 und EN673 Außen Innen
  Lichttransmission 11 %
  Lichtreflexion 42 % 42 %
  Energietransmission 13 %
  Energiereflexion 34 %
  Energieabsorption (1. Scheibe) 53 %
  UV-Transmission 1 %
  g-Wert 25 %
  Farbwiedergabeindex Transmission (Ra) 93
  Farbwiedergabeindex Außenreflexion (Ra) 95

The only remeaning problem is from the MMM-Formula1-Module that doesnt load the data reliable.

Here are the Pics:

@gubert uhmmm… I got 2 samples of them and I was disappointed. Whats ur opinion, would recommend it ? (but 8mm is very thick )

I dont have any other mirrors seen for projects like this. So i cant compare. But for me it looks great.
The pictures are while very bright light taken and the tv is about ~60% brightness setting.
Whats your problem with this mirrors?

EDIT: for sure they are very heavy. but its okay for me

The quality of the samples are bad.

Firstly, this looks great. I have a couple of questions. How did you get the mirror to be on the frame? Did you glue it or use some sort of two sided tape? Also; what did you use to hang it on the wall?

“How did you get the mirror to be on the frame?”
As is wrote in the initial post i glue it. Scroll up

“What did you use to hang it on the wall?”
Simple hooks. Like this:
