Old wine box + old monitor + RPi = MagicMirror

Great idea, looks pretty nice IMHO!
Huntsville (US), Brisbane (AU), Italian wine box and German time/date - I’m confused ;)
The weather module is mixed °C/°F, isn’t it?Greetings from St. Gallen / Grüsse aus St. Gallen

Holy shit, I saw this post before but only now do I realize that it’s a box from Livia Fontana. We love their wines and go there regularly to spend a lot of money. Especially the Insieme is my secret favorite.
Anyway, really nice mirror! What two-way-mirror did you use and where did you get it from?

@mnl Haha yeah I can understand that. My brother is studying in Huntsville and I was on exchange in Brisbane. The wine boxes were just sitting in the basement, so I used them, because we like italian wine ;)

@madscientist I used a kind of acryl glass (plexiglass) from a company in Lucerne (Switzerland). Here is the link. It is approx. 1/4 of the price and weight compared to a real mirror. Still the reflection is pretty good, depending on the light conditions though (obviously). If you click on the link you’ll also find a review to this kind of 2 way mirror.

Looks really great, a great idea !!
I hope that I can show my project soon. At the moment I’m still struggling with some modules that they are finally running.
I will build a mirror with 3 monitors :)Liebe Grüsse aus Olten
