I want a large mirror for my room, not bothered what its made of, as long as it reflects me in it!

Must be 5 foot or over in height by about 6foot wide. can be small but i just need to reflect myself.

I dont want it to be too expensive
 
sorry, i didnt mean 5feet in depth!! Nah i'll be using it for practicing spinning (poi, not genilalia!)


needs to be big so i can see myself, the sort of thing gyms have on their wall, or even them crappy plastic flex mirrors will do

It would probably be pretty heavy too when it comes to lifting and hanging, and a bugger to manoeuver, especially if the room is upstairs.

Maybe several tall but thin mirrors??

yeh, the other day i tried moving one (me and my landlord) into the back of his shogun. it was about 5foot wide by 4foot high. I got under it and needed to tilt it to get it in the boot, but it split in half with me under it instead. I bricked it because it could have chopped me in 2 :eek:

maybe 3 or 4 long tall mirrors. Im sure you can get that reflective plastic crap from somewhere thats dirt cheap. you know, the stuff you can peal off at the corners

Kitchen foil plus sticky-back plastic, then iron it onto a large piece of cardboard for Blue-peter/ghetto large mirror :p

I have two 7' by 1.5' (approx) that are sitting in my garage that you could have for free if you can get to coventry with a van or something.

they would be ideal. If you sent them by courier I would pay the postage costs. Im thinking around £40 or £50, but it shouldnt be too expensive. can you configure your trust or drop me an email to [email protected] (my ntl email is changing -again!)

cheers

i got one of a similar size, about 5ft square from one of those cheapo shops in leicester a few years ago, cost me about £35. it's got a pine frame and is in good condition, and i managed to get it home from the shop in my polo!

tbh, i wish i'd never bought it it's totally impractical, needs securing to the wall with a million screws and makes a right mess. im trying to get rid of it as it's hiding behind the sofa atm out of the way. interested? ;)

is it 5foot of mirror or has it got a foot of pine on the sides? if i can get one large enough it doesnt need to go on the wall, i can just lean it up against it.

You should have a word with Ric Green and see what is being ordered/thrown out during building/refurb (Grand and rehearsal rooms) ;)

cheers, didnt think about that. Ill have a word or drop him a mail
 
problem solved (maybe) ive ordered 2 5' for 2' mirror on a roll. saves in weight and can be moved/chopped up if need be. i'll post again when they arrive as they do sound quite interesting. oh they cost £24 for both inc delivery
