Someone posted a link to this on the MagicMiror forum so I gave it a look. I'm glad I did. I see you're using the MMM-EyeCandy module. I wrote that module for the mirror a few years ago. It's nice to see people are still using it. Nice work on your mirror!
It's so fun! Awesome module.
What has the internet done to my brain, my first thought when reading "MMM-EyeCandy module" was "this is going to be really inappropriate..."
@@smody121 mxr mods
@@smody121 Why did you think it was inappropriate? I just assumed those "MMM" had something to do with the fact that it's called the Magic Mirror (and presumably the last M is module)
@DOGGO_ Woo I thought at first it was going to be inappropriate but by the end of the sentence I realized it was innocuous. It was just a stupid joke about being in UA-cam comments generally for too long and seeing people make sexual innuendos about everything (referring to the content creator) so thought it was going in a different direction at first.
What a great project. I love how you show that you don't need to have full blown workshop to do such projects.
Are you calling my workshop lacking in full-blownness?! Small but Mighty 😜
@@BeckyStern I apologise for defaming your workshop. It's nicer, and possibly bigger, than mine.
I was thinking the same thing! So many makers on UA-cam have these HUGE workshops with a bunch of super expensive CNC machines. Watching them I think "that's super cool, I wish I had a million dollars so I could do that too." This is also super cool but also attainable. This makes me think "I should go do something super cool myself." Love it!!
@@weicocu This. So much this.
@@weicocu it is a plain matter of scale and productivity. People use powertools instead of literally hand drilling or sawing stuff to save time so if you can make something in minutes instead of spending hours to building something, yea more power to you.
However in most cases you can pretty much do everything they do with just hand and powertools, it just is often not worth spending hours to demonstrate an idea every time really
Even though I've already seen a lot of Magic Mirror videos and know pretty much everything about them, I've never seen someone using a VESA mount to put it on the wall. That's extremely elegant!
Thank you!
It's rather ingenious, IMO. It makes it that much more useful.
Swooping in from TOT’s channel, I think I’m going to like it here, a pi mirror for hass io has been on my list a while!
This is quite an old comment, but oh well, might as well give it a try
I'm interested in learning more about raspberry pi and I want to make cool builds like these but I don't know where to get started
Well, Idk where to get started with CS and coding in general
Can you give me some advice on getting started or link me to a learning resource for this type of stuff?
I'd really appreciate it!
That's very neat! You can also try adding proximity sensors into the framing so that the screen and LED strips would automatically turn on and off when you get near the mirror, can possibly save tiny little bit of energy and is just simply cool
Nicely done! I wouldn't have thought to use nylon webbing to secure the monitor....my brain is always pointing towards hard materials, I need to rewire to think a bit more "softly"!
Thank you! It took a while looking at it to arrive at that idea. My thinking was "if it's good enough to secure my motorcycle inside the van..." 😆
@@BeckyStern I picked up a roll of seatbelt strap from a dumpster, it's amazing how many uses I've found for it!
Awesome project! Doing rip cuts with a circular saw is 100% flexing on those that say a massive workshop is needed for any projects; so cool! Thanks for sharing and being an inspiration to tackle more projects!
💪💪 Thanks!
Becky, what a wonderful project! Thank you for sharing!!
Seen this project many times, but this was very cleverly executed and a joy to watch. Thank you 😊🙏🏻
The grommet in the webbing trick is a great idea, I've just been screwing directly though the stuff when I've needed to use it as a mount like that, and it chews up really easilly :D Off to find the right tool to add to my toolbox :)
Big washers will work pretty good too :)
I've been thinking about this for literally 10 years and you did it! Awesome!!
And we're one step closer to the cyberpunk aesthetic we all want and need. Thanks!
I just recently made my own magic mirror. I really enjoyed your personal customizations and it's given me some ideas for my next mirror project.
I separated the Magic Mirror server/client configuration so, I could run the MM server on an old laptop already being used as a development web server. Then installed the MM client on the Raspberry Pi and made it reachable across my network. The MM client uses significantly fewer resources and I even got it running smoothly on a Gen1 Pi Zero Wireless. Now, I can easily spin up multiple MM client instances for other mirrors, or set the MM dashboard web interface URL as a new tab window for my web browser to keep me informed.
Fancy!
Yes! Awesome idea, I hope you keep coming up with great projects like this!
another banger of a project. i like how she explains why she is doing each step
I am super impressed you did all that in a NYC apartment, im never complaining about not having enough space to work on a project lol
I do a lot of vacuuming... 😆
that's what impressed me as well!
I've been wanting to do a magic mirror since before they got popular! Great project, and you figured out some things I hadn't yet. Thanks! I also ran into the pricey two-way-mirror issue. The one thing that held me up. Also, shipping to Hawaii costs as much as the mirror (and no local sources).
Your dog was unimpressed though. Slept through the entire video production!
This is rad as hell. Definitely way above my handiness/craftiness level, but a Magic Mirror is something I'd like to make one day
"Rad as hell" perfectly encapsulates :)
Great video! Well edited and super engaging. The finished product of your project is amazing. Going to give this swing with a spare monitor and pi I have laying around.
Such an awesome project! Love the result. Thanks for sharing, Becky. Alas, I'm not the most gifted maker. So I'm hesitant to try and build something like this myself. But I'm itching to give it a try because you made it look like fun, even though it seems a lot of work.
What an amazing project! The end result looks fantastic - and I love the font style you went with. Very clear and easy to read! :)
This is so cool! Please keep doing more projects like this :)
love the clever use of the versa mount. That makes it useful as a bathroom tv!
Thanks for the awesome video! I always wondered how those smart mirrors worked.
Awesome project and great result! Love it!
Your mirror creation is amazing. Wish I had the confidence to create one.
Such an amazing video! A pleasure discovering your channel!
Awesome build!
The way you explain, your workspace, cute doggo and everything in this video is very inspiring
A Trifecta of skills: Woodworking, Electronics and Programming ( plus many more) to create and complete your exceptional project!
This is awesome! The potential to do this with a range of salvaged materials (+ mirror) is smashing. Love it.
Great video. Love these magic mirror projects. The led strips idea is super clever. Was wondering about glass vs plastic. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Thank you so much!!
great idea, very good execution and simple and clear explanations in the video, kudos Becky. You are changing the world one video at a time!
Thank you for the video. I love the idea of magic mirrors.. or rather DIY smart home in general, this was great.
Glad you liked it!!
Incredible work! well done!
*WOW. That is so cool! Looks futuristic.*
Just wow! Nice work!!!
Nicely done. Thanks for sharing!
Great project!
On the other note, I just love the scenery at 3:14 of room which looks basically like a living space (there is even a dog sleeping not minding anything), and woodworking/tinkering equipment in front.
Very nice indeed. Along with daughter, we are going to build one as a project. Thank you for sharing.
Much love.
Awesome video. Nice work with the tools, too :)
What a cool, chill, nicely presented video.
Amazing project, inspires me to start some DIY on my own.
Made my week! Fabulous work
This mirror looks hella awesome! Also great choice of music btw
What a great project! Really cool 🔥
Super impressive build!!
Great stuff! Absolutely love the idea
Amazing video!!! your mirror looks great!
Excellent project and video! Thanks for creating it.
Glad you liked it!
Fun and cool project! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you too! 😎
Wow! Great job! with this project!
Very engaging plot and filming! I love watching underrated artists like you, I feel like I support someone who should have more views and subs. Thanks!
This is well done, Becky! I appreciate the attention to detail and talking through each step. Some tuts don't get into how to situate the monitor on the two way mirror and I'm not sure if I've seen an adjustable TV mount used before. Good idea!
Thanks so much!
Yes, I totally agree. The level of detail in the instructions is admirable.
Impressive love the concept. major props to building something like this in a less than ideal environment. I struggle with not have a good workshop space so very inspiring.
Underrated video, hope your channel keeps on growing
Very creative idea, I loved the video!
You're amazing. Thanks a lot!
The mirror is great, but also the way you EQed the music to remove mid-frequencies when you speak and make your voice sound more clear. Awesome!
I'm glad I'm not the only person crazy enough to have his workshop inside the living room hahaha. awesome project, i've been wanting to make this one for years now.
Honestly, you don't always get a choice about that, we can't all have houses large enough to have a dedicated workshop room or to go to a makerspace.
For your health and any pets you may have, you should have a separate ventilated room. Since I don't have a room either, I only use hand tools for neat works and go outside when I have to glue or do some minor sanding.
Found you through Xyla! Totally want to build this for me and that huggable bear with my sister’s kids!
Thanks for being awesome!
I really don't know why I am discovering (read: youtube letting me discover) your channel only now, but it was an absolut insta-subscribtion! As the video goes on, I'm super happy to find the same high quality content and super nice, super comprehensible explanations here as when I first saw you with Adafruit... like 10 years ago! Your (and Collin's) tutorials really drew me into the world of (microcontroller) tinkering. And with that, a bit later into studying Computer Science and now a PhD in Human Computer Interaction research... where I am now one of "those hardware-tinkerers"! Thank you - and Adafruit - so much for that!
Any idea what Collin is up to, these days?
Whishing you all the best from germany!
This is awesome and yet is giving me Black Mirror vibes!
I love it!
I have been looking for this comment
Very interesting and well explained. Thanks!
Super awesome project and the dance was excellent.
Awesome! Still can't wait for smart contacts.
nice build!
Wow, amazing job!
That's the best magic mirror build I've ever seen! Great job Becky.
Really good video it got suggested in my youtube startpage ^^
ah the projects aledgedly millions on FB have started but only few actually finish and use!
Great work Becky!
They have no excuse, it's wayyyy easier than the first time I made one of these from an android tablet however many years ago.. Thank you!
cool project, thanks for an idea
That's amazing!
This is so cool!!
This was a beautiful build. I didn't know about the magic mirror thing until this video. It's great that you were able to repurpose the frame from the original mirror, but it sucks you were able to lower the height of the mirror, BUT it's awesome you got it to tilt down. Amazing work.
Thank you! I didn't reuse the original frame, I bought a new frame made from the same thickness wood as my plywood.
@@BeckyStern Ohhh, okay. Beautiful build, all the same. BTW, I meant to say "weren't able to lower the mirror height."
What an interesting project and tip regarding DigiKey & Raspberry Pi. I found your channel from Jimmy Diresta’s secret Santa reference. Looking forward to seeing your content and learning from you. Wishing you and your family a blessed Christmas season. Cheers
I'm amazed, thank you
Really nice project !
This is so totally on my to do list
I am a guy with no use for mirrors, really, but, as a Linux programmer, as well as a builder, I find your ingenuity, ingenious! Cool!
Curious if the PI has any issues when there's steam around - didn't see a case/enclosure for it. I really liked the method you used wood to create an inner frame to center the monitor - the addition of straps made it looks super sturdy!
That's a concern that crossed my mind as well. It seems like both the pi and monitor are open enough to be reached by steam. But overall its a super cool project!
Only seeing this now, and i love the idea
WOW, what an amazing project.
Fantastic! Good idea!
Amazing job!
You're very awesome and entertaining! Thank you for the sick video 👍
Excellent editing, very well explained,
Very impressive!
Super cool!!!
That's cool!
This is so interesting, thank the algorithm for landing me here, looking forward to going through all your vids! Also anyone reading this put down in the comments more youtubers / forums where they do Pi projects, I never knew this could be so fascinating!
Jeff Geerling is a great Raspberry Pi UA-camr, although most of what he doesn't isn't "projects" in the same sense as this one.
Simone Giertz is a UA-camr who does a lot of interesting projects, although I don't think she's done any using a Raspberry Pi, as far as I can remember.
The blog on the official Raspberry Pi site links to a lot of projects. You might be able to find some on Hackaday, as well.
Welcome! My subscriptions are public if you want to see what I watch.
Great video! Thanks for sharing
Very impressive project. Thanks for sharing.
Great project! I hope I can integrate this into a future bathroom renovation.
Go for it!
What the heck!! Brilliant!
so awesome - i love the part where you have the sawhorses and power saws in your apartment :D
Love this kinda stuff.
wow this is so cool. inspiring!
Superb! :)
This girl's got skills! Thanks for sharing
I have a few spare laptops and things, I definitely need to try a project like this. Thanks.
Go for it!
this is so cool!
