    • RE: Transparent glass in front of Acrylic Sheet to hold it together ?

      @askmahesh Thank you for your kind response.
      For Acrylic sheet you will need to build a complete frame, after taking allowances as suggested by @bhepler

      I would suggest glass as it is more sturdy & durable.

    • RE: Best Magic Mirror Build !

      @tbs86
      Hi ! Holes to be drilled afterwards…

      First of all we need to build our frame based on the size of screen.
      Next, transfer the holes on the Mirror and get it drilled !

      Caution : There is a special machine for drilling holes on glass !

    • RE: Step by step video tutorial - how to build frame less magic mirror !

      So, after posting my videos on Fb, there were lot of people who were interested in building the mirror, however most of them did not know where to start.

      Hence i decided to build a series of tutorials to get everyone out there started, who even don’t know what is Raspberry Pi.

      I am a Mechanical Engineer and i wasn’t sure how to do things, but i learned after lots of research. I made this series of Videos starting from

      How to Install MM & Getting started with MM Modules - https://youtu.be/PHpth_KQHcE
      How to configure calendar & weather modules - https://youtu.be/ce6O2aGB9tY

      I also plan to make some more of them so that this project can reach to as many people as possible !

      {
      	module: "newsfeed",
              position: "upper_third",
      		              	config: {
      	           		       	feeds: [
      					               {
      						                      title: "The Hindu - National",
      					                         	url: "https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/feeder/default.rss"
                                                             },
      
                                                             {
                                                                             title: "Times of India - National",
                                                                             url: "https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/rssfeeds/-2128936835.cms"
                                                              },
      
      			                     	],
      			                 	showSourceTitle: true,
      			                 	showPublishDate: true,
      			                   	broadcastNewsFeeds: true,
      			                 	broadcastNewsUpdates: true,
      			                    hideLoading: true,
                                      showDescription: true,
                                      updateInterval: 45000
      		                          	}
      	           	},
      

      This module is for one row of news feed ! and it will show feeds from the above two links (in my case National news The Hindu & Times of India)
      You may add more feed links if required.

      Now, if you want to display a new row for the news, configure it as a new module with exact same name as of news feed. For eg. I have added international news feed

      {
                              module: "newsfeed",
                              position: "upper_third",
                              config: {
                                      feeds: [
                                              {
                                                      title: "The Hindu - International",
                                                      url: "https://www.thehindu.com/news/international/feeder/default.rss"
                                              },
      
                                              {
                                                      title: "Times of India - International",
                                                      url: "https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/rssfeeds/296589292.cms"
                                              },
      
      				],
                                      showSourceTitle: true,
                                      showPublishDate: true,
                                      broadcastNewsFeeds: true,
                                      broadcastNewsUpdates: true,
                                      hideLoading: true,
                                      showDescription: true,
                                      updateInterval: 45000
      			 }
                      },
      

      Keep in mind that the sequence of the rows will be according to the module position ie. if the News feed for national news is above international news. The First row would be of National news followed by International News.

      Hope it helps !

    • RE: Cooling Raspi

      @requiemmg Actually there is a hack! You can increase the space between wall & frame by placing 4 no screws in the back side of frame that would give you some extra margin to place your fan on Rpi. You can also adjust the screw height accordingly! Hope it helps !
