Re: Changing a mirror on a scanner
As we are a long way from anywhere I have to make my own mirrors and it is quite simple.I found a stained glass window maker who will cut any shape mirror you want in seconds.For cheap effects mirrors I buy very cheap table mirrors from a $2 dollar shop as the glass is really thin and light.For real movers we use front surface optical glass, my glass man stocks this to make kaleidoscopes, but it is not very expensive compared to the replacement parts price and most importantly I can get a mirror replaced in a day.So I recommend finding a glass artisan and starting a business relationship, I was able to show my glass man how to light his windows display for best effect and he still cuts my glass for free.
