Does anybody have plans for, or how do you make, an infinity mirror box?

Answer 1

Is this what you were looking for?

Answer 2

If I know what you're talking about.. is this some kind of device that creates an infinite number of images of an object with each one getting smaller? if this is what you're referring to , continue reading.

Such a device defies the laws of physics (at least for the time being). the reason for this is that mirrors don't reflect 100% of the light shone on them. Most mirrors only reflect about 90%. If you take two mirrors and place them side by side (witht the shiny surfaces facing each other) and place an object inbetween the two, you will understand what I'm saying. the image will grow further back (and smaller at the same time, but it will also get darker- eventually to point where it can no longer be seen. Once a better mirror is created, then, it might work.

Answer 3

You need a mirror and a piece of "One-Way" Glass and a low wattage light source.
Construct your box with the mirror as the bottom and the One-way glass as the top. The mirrored sides are facing each other. The light is placed on the inside of the box.

As long as the inside of the box is illuminated with more light than out side the box you will be able to see through the One-way glass.

Answer 4

I made several of these years ago. They are real eye catchers.

The plans recommended above look very good.

For the mirrored glass B in the plan you can use a regular mirror cut to the size that you need, or use 9" x 9" mirrored tiles and fit them together. You can buy those at home depot.

For the lights I used strings of Christmas tree lights.

For the front mirored glass you can use regular glass and just buy and apply a layer of mirrored window reflective sheeting which is also available from home depot.

Good luck.
