@stephanvdplas you not worried about condensation in the electricals?

I will NOT bother asking anymore questions and I wouldn’t ask YOU or anyone else who have NOT been helpful or childish. THANKS!

Stop posting in MY post then! No one is making you! I am NO troll I was here for advice etc like anyone else and I shared a idea and I got this for my trouble. You know what they say about kids if you ignore them they will get bored. Think I will do that in this instance! I am sure the way everyone is acting they must be younger than me or if they are older then it’s sad to be acting like this! Yo Mom lol!!! Childish!

Obvs you must be 5 years old! Go away. If you have nothing decent to add then grow up! Also writing in something else other than English then I hope it’s against rules because it will be a insult!

‘Your Mum’ insults = children. Thought I’d ask yours instead. Bl*ody grow up! Keyboard tough guys make me laugh but also VERY sad! All I wanted was advice!!! I won’t bother asking anymore questions here I will just look get what I need and that’s it!

Have I joined a kids forum?!? Feels like it… I was giving people another option to make themselves a magic mirror. I didn’t know this would cause such a knicker twist for many and I didn’t know this was a exclusive club either. I was going to build a Pi version also but I was asking if it would be possible in what I asked and thought if it helped others to be able to make a magic mirror more easy then I didn’t see the prob with that (after all this is a forum and they are normally to ask questions and share thoughts and get advice). I hadn’t moaned once about waiting for a answer either?!? Not sure where you / others got that from. I cannot be bothered to argue with people acting like children.

How GROWN up. Not even worth a response.

@jasondreher that would be HELPFUL thanks.

WOW…!!!

Isn’t this a magic mirror forum?!? Or am I mistaken… Is it exclusive to what you mentioned above only - I don’t see that written anywhere… I was here looking for help but atm don’t seem to getting much from anyone (based on ‘answers’ / ‘advice’).

@yawns https://www.magicmirrorcentral.com/android-app-magic-mirror/ Magic mirror Android apps.

So I am looking at getting Amazon Fire 7/8/10 (as they have dropped in price atm and it’s easier than buying a Pi and coding it and or alot of effort) and the magic mirror app (can anyone give advice which app is best to use? I only want it for time, date, weather, news, maybe sport and if possible voice commands ie. Alexa) and a Ribba frame or display case from Ikea and then getting some mirrored film or acrylic mirrored glass. My question is if I get Amazon fire 7/8/10 will I be able to use it as a magic mirror (I know I may have to flash it or side-load Google play), also if I get the app will I still be able to give voice commands to Amazon Fire 7/8/10 is it just a app or does it make the device only work as a magic mirror once installed?

Thanks in advance.

@Mykle1 Yes thanks but I could of done this myself… I was asking if anyone has links to what they used etc. Not just giving me Amazon / Ebay etc link to home page and telling me to search on those for it.

I wonder if I bought a cheap mirror if it would allow screen image through… Or if I removed that back coating you sometimes find on back of mirrors if it would then let screen image through mirror. I’d rather go to a shop (UK) and walk away with something rather than buy on Amazon or such like.

Isn’t a 40/50 Ribba frame at Ikea…?!? Thinking of using this or two back to back. Also can you quote the one way reflective film you used as the link was just a link to Ebay.

@Mykle1 Thanks but I am able to Google Amazon and then type in acrylic two-way mirror. I posted here for links to what others have used and or places they have bought them from (including stores).

@Mykle1 Thanks do you have a link? I would much rather pick parts up in shops tho if possible.

Good afternoon everyone,

I am new here. I am UK based and I am wondering has anyone found any DIY / hobbycraft shops that sell acrylic mirror or mirror film? Also has anyone found any good pre-made frames (Ikea? or such). Thanks in advance. TGBB.
