- Making an infinity mirror (Also known as LED illusion mirror) clock using an old wall clock, a led strip and some wood.
Limited tools such as a cordless drill, drill bits, pliers and a screwdriver is all we need to make this project come to life.
An easy and cheap to make woodworking project video from FS Woodworking.

Remember: Always use protective gear while working with wood and power tools. Safety first!!
Enjoy the video!
DISCLAIMER: My videos are showing the way I build stuff. If you think you are not feeling comfortable about working with wood or power tools then you should probably not try to make what I make. Although if you do please use safety gear.
I have done this . Awesome . Cant stop stare to this . I am doing some improvements : using a small 2 amps power supply and also including a dimmer(with remote controller) to adjust brightness .
+Elias Alves Glad to hear that you also build it and enjoying it. I like your improvements.
UA-cam is amazing. In 80s and 90s decades as most of the African countries was in war or just ended it. everything made in Europe and america was very new, special and expensive when it arrived in Africa. Today I am seated in my house having the source of most genius ideas and knowledge from very expertise men.
Dude, be careful, at 1:09 you almost drilled your finger :o
+Matthieu Freund-Priacel (Primatt) Hi, there are lots of people saying the same thing on the comments. Well I had to drill through a thin strip of wood and I had to apply preasure on it from the other side while drilling. It looks on the vid that it was really close and it was but I knew where my fingers were at the time. Thank you for your comment and for watching my video.
No problem :p But try to use some plier or a spare stick of wood, would be bad if you hurt yourself ^^
Anyway, great work !
ahahahahah XD

thats truly awesome Clock
Thank you
when I'm on holidays at santorini Island i see table with this effect ;)
Awesome idea, really cool infinite effect!
Thank you very much.
hello sir if i ma ask u did u use a black glass(tined) or a transparent one? which one is better?
+Afif Al-Hariri Hello my friend. I have used a 2 way mirror. (google it).Transparent glass will not work. Thank you for your comment and have a good day!!
it does look like just tinted glass he even put the tinted side on the inside of the clock not the mirrored side it confused me as well
Champion 😍
WOW* very good job :-)
+MrHandwerk Thank you very much
oh thank you :)
Hi Vasilis
Love the clock looks awesome. I bet it is a nice addition to the shop and pleasant to look at.
Thank you. I am very pleased with it. Glad you liked it.
I would rather use aluminium instead of wooden / synthetic strips because of heat conduction.
Great Work!
Thank you. Yes. Aluminium is better. Also the led strip sticks better on aluminium
Βασίλη πολύ καλή δουλειά.θελω να φτιάξω και εγώ ένα θα μπορέσεις να με βοηθήσεις???σε ευχαριστώ.
Hy Sir . congratulations for this work!👏👏👏 you inspired me to do something similar. sir, could you please give me details (make, model, etc.) which foil did you use? what film did you use on the window? I thank you very much and I sincerely wish you much success in everything you want to achieve in the future.
U Filmed hOW u Made It, But You DIdnt Show Video While Its On :D
Like Brazil creative. 👍👍👍
Sir how to drill glass
Hi, there are special diamond hole saws for glass. You use them on your drill press while spraying your workpiece with water. I used a 10mm hole saw.

nice home made mirror LED clock...
how come dont have 12 numbers from 1 to 12
+bestamerica Hi, there is no special reason for this, although it would be a good idea to cut small rectangular pieces of glass and glue them on the mirror. Maybe on the next one. Thank you for your comment.
ΟΧΙ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΠΙΟ ΚΑΛΑΙΣΘΗΤΟ ΚΑΙ ΠΙΟ ΝΤΙΖΑΙΝΑΤΟ ΕΤΣΙ ΠΟΥ ΤΟ ΕΚΑΝΕΣ...ΚΑΙ ΕΧΕΙΣ ΚΑΙ ΜΙΑ ΚΑΛΗ ΔΙΚΑΙΟΛΟΓΙΑ...''ΩΧΧ .ΠΑΙΔΙΑ ΣΟΡΡΥ ΝΟΜΙΖΑ ΟΤΙ ΗΤΑΝ ΕΦΑΤΜΙΣΗ...!!''

What did you use to make the ring onto which u mounted the LED strip
kenneth chellan Hi, just a thin strip of beech wood.
You Know just for a second I thought you were going to put that drill bit right in that pointer finger of yours. that was very close. Glad you did not because that would suck.
80s ROCK hehe. I know it looks like that on the video, I got a few comments about that. I suppose it has to do with the angle of the camera. Thank you for your comment.
u actually dont need a power supply to power this led strip only a capacitor and a bridge rectifier will do the job from main 120 or 220ac to 12 dc , easier , much cheaper and smaller
Like, but you could put the power adaptor inside of this big clock.
+Mikkey Sean Hi thanks for your comment. I could but not the one I have on the video. This was too bulky to hide it behind the clock. There are slimmer adaptors that you can hide behind the clock.
You could remove 4 leds at positions 12 - 3 - 6 - 9... And replace with colours green blue yellow and red
Great
А время поллучается так и застыло на одном месте?.. Ну и часы, блин, слов нет..)) Ну грек моллодец - канеш старрался)))
This is great.
Thank you my friend.
Do you know where I can get the dark glass like yours?
Wouldn't it be better if you find a way of lighting the LEDs not from direct electricity but from batteries?
Like, and very nice. good work
+EDUARDO GOMEZ RAMOS Thank you
con. fue. CE. hacen los. espegos. redondos
Muito interessante.
that 2 glass, one way mirror..??
Very good job. Congratulations. Liked.

That's really cool (:
Wow! so cool!
Nice One Mate. Now that's all kinds of Impressive. It looks Awesome Thumbs up all the way :) ...
Thank you I really appreciate your support.
Vasilis Papadopoulos Your very Welcome Mate. Awesome Clock
What percentage of mirrored tint do I buy thanks?
putting numbers on the inside with a similar transparency as the arms should give the illusion of the numbers being sucked in?
+Brandon Kleiber Yes. Anything you put between the mirrors will give the same illusion.
This is really nice, like we say "katapliktiko". The idea goes to my ToDo list.
+Karagiann WoodMade Great. Wait to see it
Awesome. That is one of the best I've seen. It seems like the LED's are especially bright. Did you use a special kind? Does white work best? How much voltage did you apply to them?
+f0rmaggi0 Thank you. I have used a 14.4W white led strip. I dont really know if it works better than other colours because this is the only one I have ever made. The power supply is 12Volt DC, 4.1A, 60Watt
Great video,the clock looks very nice!What was the box for that you attached the power cord into?
This is the 12V adapter.
Is the clock depth really only approx. 2 inches? or has a longer depth been added?
+James Nielsen Its less than 2 inches.
Awesome.
What is reflective factor for window tint film u used here??? There is several diferent factors... From 50% to 100%...
+mindbodyheartansoul Hi. As I mentioned on other questions above there is no tint film there. What I have used is a one way mirror.
You are welcome!
woooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its so cool
+Shiva Shankar Thanks
Me too, Wow!
μαστορας εισαι
+nick stave Να εισαι καλα αδερφε.
hey did you use a one way mirror for this? I want to make something very similar. I'm from Greece too :)
Hi my friend. Yes a normal mirror for the back and a one way mirror for the front. (both mirrors facing in)
πολυ καλη δουλια φιλε μου συγχαρητηρια
+OUGGRINIS CONSTRUCTION Σε ευχαριστώ αδερφέ
καλημερα...παρα πολυ ωραια. δουλεια μπραβο!!
+ΣΠΥΡΟΣ ΚΑΡΑΓΙΩΡΓΟΣ Καλημέρα, σε ευχαριστώ πολύ.
why didn't you show step by step? Like did u use window tint on the clear plastic front of the original clock? Clear plastic/glass won't reflect enough to give the desired effect. So what did u use?
+David Tipton Hi there. I used one way mirror.
+Vasilis Papadopoulos (FS WoodWorking) And how/where did you get these round mirrors ?
+Lucas Boisneau Ordered them in my local glass shop
+Lucas Boisneau Ordered them in my local glass shop
👇and it would look really awesome
Are the hands of the clock transparent or metal?
Metal!!
Μπράβο φιλαράκι!!! Πολύ καλή δουλειά. Μ' έβαλες σε μπελάδες όμως. ΠΡΕΠΕΙ να το φτιάξω κι εγώ! ;)
Χεχε. Ωραίοι αυτοί οι μπελάδες.
Είχα φτιάξει ένα ωραίο επιπλάκι με τρύπα για μόνιτορ δίπλα στην εξώπορτα με κάμερα... Σαν ματάκι δλδ, αλλά... μόνο έτοιμο μπορώ να το δείξω :( Και πάλι μπράβο!
+Propulsive1 Πολύ ωραία ιδέα φίλε. Περιμένω να το δω.
στο FB σου έστειλα μήνυμα. Είμαι σίγουρος πως θα το κάνεις ΠΟΛΥ καλύτερο!
Where can I get that same clock??
Awesome
Glad you liked it. Thanks
Great clock! How dark is your tinted glass? What percentage did you use?
Thank you for your comment. It is actually a one way mirror. You can see through it from the one side but from the other is a mirror. I do not really know if there is a percentage of darkness.
music is noises

welcome good luck
I have the same clock, what a coincidence! Now I'm very inclined to do the same thing you did lol
Thats great. Go ahead...
that looks great. good work
+Marc Bier Thank you
The only reason I watched this video was to see how you drilled the hole in the mirror and you didn’t even show that😢
+Barry Fields diamond 10mm hole saw on the drill press. You spray with water as you cut through glass.
Vasilis Papadopoulos thanks for sharing, but I was hoping you had a trick to it, did you break any?
Barry Fields The reason I didnt show the process was just because I got the mirror predrilled. I also mention that on my previous comments. It is just a special hole saw for glass and mirror in the drill press. Also water helps to keep the glass cool so it does not break.
Молодец!
can I buy from u ?
+prime ang Hi my friend, thank you for your interest. Right now you can not, but I am in the process of making an eshop. I will post link here as soon as possible
Ok,i will wait for you ,but I from Malaysia ，will not be convenient?
lovely
+anold mambo Glad you like it. Thanks a lot.
+anold mambo Glad you like it. Thanks a lot.
glass should be more tinted and than this will be perfect.
+Hellboy SRB I dont think so because then you would not be able to see the time whith the leds off. Now you can
I agree with you, if we want to have also the clock without LEDs.
Whats with the big unit attached to the led strip
+Aaryan Bammi That is the power supply for the led strip.
Vasilis Papadopoulos Where you gonna put or hide the power supply then? do we have to use power supply for LED strip?
nice one i love it
