Thanks for that!

Impressive work. How many cans of silicone did you use?

Hi @evgeniy88,
I probably needed a lot less than half a can. The relief of the milling helps to save material and still guarantee stability.

Soon I will start building a bathroom mirror cabinet with a magic mirror. I will post the details in this forum again. :-)

Best regards
Josef

Thanks for your posts. At first I was skeptical about the idea of gluing a mirror on silicone, but now I want to use your design.

Hi,
Thank you for all this info.
I am at the very start of my magic mirror journey and came across you mirror which is simply fantastic.
I noticed you had metal LED buttons on the side of your frame which I would like to install one in mine for powering opn/off.
Having looked at button tutorials I see most are just 2 jumper wires to the GIPO is this the same for your buttons?
How is the LED powered?

thanks!

Hi,
please forgive the late reply. It slipped through.

I use these buttons: https://smile.amazon.de/gp/product/B00JSEX1A0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

These have separate connections for “nomaly closed” NC and “normaly open” NO. And there are also the connections for the button LED.

But I did not connect the LEDs. Otherwise, besides the LED of the toothbrush and the LED of the mouthwash and the LED of the razor and … another LED would burn. Then I could slowly save the ceiling lighting in the bathroom :-)

Hi Josef,
Looks very impressive. Which source do you use for the wooden frame?
Thanks a lot
Peter

Hi @PeterKatana,
What do you mean by source?
The frame is made of beech wood. You can buy it from a wood dealer or carpenter. I have taken solid wood shelf savior made of beech from the hardware store. These are glued rod-wise and therefore torsion-resistant.

Hi Josef,
thanks for the recommendation. I will search here for a carpenter. A miter saw I should have. Before I lived in Aschheim, that was easier. Now I am jobwise in Göppingen. Will search around.
I am curious for your next project you announced.
Stay safe !
