I didn’t take many pictures of the process.
Took a little longer than I planned because I had to reorder a thicker mirror. If you order from amazon go with the 3mm unless you want a funhouse mirror.
Pi zero $5 (micro center)
Parts for pi $18 (Amazon 8 in 1 makerspots)
Plexiglass $35 (Amazon 12x24 3mm)
Mirror body $8 (goodwill)
Misc plywood and fasteners ~$20
VGA to HDMI $8 (Amazon)
TV $20 (goodwill)
Not sure where you are located, but I am in the US and have used this comapny: https://www.amazon.com/12-Acrylic-See-Through-Mirror/dp/B017ONH3EG/ref=sr_1_1?m=A25VKIYYECJBLT&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1487807733&sr=1-1
and can definitely recommend them. I’ve bought both the 1mm and 3mm and would suggest the 3mm. I’ve found a supplier for full sheets (48"x96") for $202 where I live.
@cowboysdude I’m a little biased when it comes to beach towns as I’m originally from Southern California, but all in all its a nice little place.
If you have a chance you should really hop over to New Orleans the next time you’re down here. It’s only like a 6 hour drive.
