Large Mirrors

I just have this huge feeling this mirror is destined to be mounted above the bed on the ceiling.

Either that or balet is in this year.

Wouldn't this size mirror be very very expensive?! I seem to remember even a small plain mirror costing upwards of £20-30.

Go watch Blue Peter... NOW!
 
as i said before i will be spinning in front of it (click my sig to find out more!)
bluepeter is turd, i havent watched it for many years and even then i hated it
 
cheapest i can find is £65 -rotty, i forgot about this thread sorry(heavy night!)

£65 gets me a 4' by 3' mirror in a half price sale
 
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.

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

Plastic with a sticky back :/

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

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

Sticky-back plastic is possible the best invention ever. Everything in the universe is held together with it.

Kids today. :rolleyes: ;)
 
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.

They make wicked mirrors for telescopes by spinning liquid mercury in a big dish. The reaction to the centripetal force creates a curved surface.

Not sure how you'd stick one of them to your wall though...
