To all interested in mirrors, there is an unusual mirror with the following properties: -reflects but doesn't mirror your image form left to right -can flip your image from top to bottom (but in this case also mirrors from left to right) -captures your image in a fixed position I can tell you how to build such a mirror in the easiest way. Email me at pietrocecchi@inwind.it, specifying where are you from, if possible.
