Hey,

Does anyone know where I can buy large front surface mirrors? I'm talking about mirrors at least 10 inches big. I've been searching around the forum and google but can't find mirrors that are bigger than 2 or 3 inches.

Thanks!

Use Craigslist. I went on there earlier this year and picked up "big screen" or "rear projection" TV's that are always given away free. They have giant first surface mirrors in them and large lenses that are fun to play with also. Most have 2 mirrors one huge about the same diamentions as the screen and another the reflects the image from the bulbs to the large mirror that is usually a foot across itself.
I offered sending fs mirrors to whoever wanted them just pay shipping and never got any interest.
I also bought a glass cutting tool from Home Depot for like $7 and cut one of the large mirrors into about 20 6x6 pieces for laser bouncing.

Edit .. Just saw your not in the states not sure you have a Craigslist where you are.
