Hello. I am making a small medicine cabinet. Due to the small size, I'd like to avoid putting the mirror in a frame (to maximize mirror size due to my rather giant head). My thought was to use a hinge like this:
But, because I would already have to laminate something to the back of the mirror to protect the silvering, my thought is tempering would be less necessary. If it breaks, the laminated backing would hold it together.
Any thoughts on what to use to laminate to the back to protect the silvering and to provide protection in the event that it breaks? Would contact cement be safe to use on the back of a mirror?
TIA, Phil
