![]() Turned out to be a good call because at first I didn’t take in for account the depth space I’d need to fit in all the wiring. I decided to make the case fit even closer to the monitor by removing the plastic around the monitor. I ordered my mirror from but you can get them from several other vendors online. But don’t worry too much about ordering slightly too big, you can cut to fit the size you need. So order a mirror that’s close to the size of your monitor (only the screen part, do not include the bezel in your measurement). They’re much more forgiving than actual mirrors and you can cut them in several different ways to fit what you need. However what I didn’t know was that these double sided mirrors are actually acryllic and plastic like. The mirror is definitely the most essential piece to the whole project. I ended up picking the BenQ GW2760HL 27 inch monitor. I was cautious to get a monitor with it’s inputs on the bottom or side because it would be hard to make the frame to fit and have the raspberry pi’s HDMI cord also fit. Another important aspect is making sure you get a monitor with the inputs towards the center of the monitor rather than the sides. I wanted to get something large as possible but also with a removeable arm so it could fit inside of a case. The size of the mirror is really dictated by the kind of monitor you get. ![]()
