This week, I focused on purchasing materials and making the necessary parts for my project. Throughout the whole week, I was printing the edge supports for the mirror. Eventually, I caved in a bought acrylic from the makerspace. I was able to laser cut al the pieces in less than an hour. Unlike what I was expecting, the one-way mirror film actually went on much easier than anticipated. I got a rubber squeegee to help flatten out the film and they actually came out really good. However, after the first test fit i realized that every edge piece was too small. After 38 hours of constant 3D printing, I was able to start building the frame for the mirror. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to the design of the mirror, I also had to design an end cap for each vertex. I did a test print and It actually came out really well. I still need to do a test print for the internal end cap and buy hardware for bolting them together. I’m hoping that the caps will help hold the whole frame together. I will need 12 of each. Since I ran out of black filament, I will also have to print them in grey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
