      @michael5r Good morning,
      I’ll be happy to answer the questions:

      1. I did not cover the screws. You still can’t see them through the glass.
        If you want to be sure, it should be sufficient to paint the screws with a black permanent marker.
        The only thing you see at the moment (if you know where to look ;-) ) is a small gap between the wooden frame and the silicone. At this point I apparently didn’t press the glass on well enough when I glued it to the frame. But that’s a little something.
      1. The monitor is actually already being fixed by the cutout in the Dibond plate. I adapted the cutout very exactly to the size of the screen. With an adhesive tape around it this is then sufficiently fixed. But I finally screwed two small angles to the wooden frame, which hold the monitor securely in the cutout of the panel. This is now doubly secure.

      Another tip about the motion detector (see also the supplement above in the text):
      In addition to the cutout for the monitor, I would now have an additional small cutout for the radar board (20 x 40 mm) made. The radar detector works perfectly, but unfortunately not through the Dibond plate. I had to fix it at the bottom of the frame. That’s OK, but it would have been perfect behind the mirror glass.

      Many greetings

      Sepp

      Regards
      Josef

          @acdacd2 Hi, thank you very much.
          The mirror glass is glued with silicone. The groove in the frame serves this purpose. See also the pictures/photos 3, 8 as well as 17 and 18.

          Regards

            Very Nice Mirror! Quality work. Can you tell me how you wired up the radar sensor and where you finally placed it? I am assuming that you are using it to turn the screen on and off. What module did you use for that? I cannot get mine to trigger reliably.

              Excellent work! That is a really sharp looking mirror. And you obviously planned out a lot ahead of time. I especially love the cutouts for the angle brackets in the corners. That is some serious attention to detail.

                @bhepler Thank you. Yes, I’ve planned a long time. The mirror should be allowed to hang in the bathroom :-)

                  @simtechben Hi, I connected the radar sensor like a PIR sensor and followed this description in the broadest sense (https://www.nils-snake.de/archives/magic-mirror-bewegungssensor-einbauen-teil-5). I adapted the script to my needs. But the logic is still as described in the article.
                  Now I glued the radar sensor outside in the middle of the lower frame board with white tape. So it lies horizontally on the frame at the bottom. Not optimal in alignment, but it works and my wife agreed ;-)
                  As described above, I would simply place it behind the mirror if there was no Dibond plate or if it had a corresponding cutout.

                  Regards
                  Josef

                      @ramez Hi,
                      Thank you for your kind words of praise.
                      On picture 7 you can see my assembly construction. I use the same principle as for a kitchen wall cabinet. A rail is mounted on the wall. The construction hangs then with special fittings on this rail. The advantage of these fittings is that they are height-adjustable and depth-adjustable. This makes exact positioning possible. This is very good for drilling between tiles, because you should only drill in the joints.
                      I then fastened the frame itself with screws from above through the frame into the substructure (see picture 24).
                      Here are the links:
