I was going with the Butler GUM 411. The trick is then getting the right color, I've had to buy packs with 1 good one and 3-4 other colors

Working on the weird mirror with the cow fuzz.

Searching pocket mirror, travel mirror, compact mirror, etc.

Any ideas what the cow fuzz is for?

 

[scarf man]

I think it’s zebra rather than cow, maybe to buff fingernails. Maybe just an 80’s exotic touch.

 

[laellee]

I always went with zebra. I've got some vintage faux zebra fur from Ebay that's close, but I think it's easier just to get white and stripe it yourself to match.
For the mirror, I originally bought 2x2 squares (I have like a hundred now lol), but that was back when I also had a hinged mirror door. Unless the source of that particular mirror appears, I've got a photogrammetry pattern and will probably just have them water-jetted barring a more affordable option.

The mirror looks like it is 1/8" acrylic sheet cut to shape.

You should be able to order acrylic sheet online.

MUCH easier. My first version (million years ago) had a square mirror inset into the door itself, and that door was hinged. Nice when correcting the mistakes is cheaper for once when making something more screen accurate

 

[Jamesfett]

Yeah, I first thought it was a framed mirror. I did not look close enough. Since it's just an acrylic or mirror piece sitting on a piece of plastic, should be easy enough.

I am ending up with so many genuine parts I am really hoping someone could use the plans to make it out of wood.

I am okay with a Dremel, but not that good.

I should have both Ortho plans and step files for CNC shortly to go with the print model. I am revising the V4 now between commissions, but most of the heavy lifting is done. I think I just need to re-fit the correct floss, and switch out my pin system with nail slots to hold the tools in place.

Just picked up another NOS floss off Ebay for $4 too. Help makes up for the $ I've spent on dental mirrors and toothbrushes lol.

Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


On the floss do we search for "NOS Floss?" So far I am not finding anything, but I may be looking for the wrong thing.

Do you have a pic?

Thanks so much for everything you have done for this project.

No clue how I missed this for so long.

 

[laellee]

Oh for NOS I just meant new-old stock. I think Lonepigeon and I are in agreement that they used the top cutter from a Johnson and Johnson coffin floss dispenser. They show up pretty regularly on EBay for $15-$20.

 

[Jamesfett]

Again, thank you so much.

 

[laellee]

Again, thank you so much.

Lonepigeon gets the credit on that one, I'd been dealing with 'close-enoughs' on that one for a few years before he showed me that.

Well thank God for Lonepigeon, who I hope is not a lonely pigeon.

So I am not tech savvy. I don't even know what CNC stands for.

So with these plans, could they be used by someone to make one out of wood?

Still searching stuff. So much scrolling
