perspex mirror frame
I recently saw a mirror with a transparent 12mm thick perspex frame. The mirror was the same size as the frame which was about 60mm broad so the frame wasn't actually a frame more a 60mm wide transparent border The one piece perspex frame had perfectly square inside corners and I wondered how they had been cut. Anyone any ideas ?
