Title: Latest Project: El Mirror Grande
Post by: whammoed on November 13, 2006, 07:31:01 pm

Wife wanted a full length mirror but I couldn't find anything that matched the grand scale of our furniture so I BYOM.  Thought I'd show it off since it turned out better than anticipated, heres a pic:  (You can see the dresser in the reflection)

Hmm... I like! Never thought of a mirror as decorative, only functional.  I like!

Thanks,  I usually just buy the plain beveled mirrors to hang on a door or wall, but it just wasn't right in this room.

Mirror can really look nice on or near an arcade cab. This is from one of my first cab projects,  i made a SF2 mirrored CP with all button and joy holes drilled in the mirror.

For all those who remember, i use the cab very often and the glass still has not broken with rough play to this day.
