Cheval Mirror Hardware

HokieMojo home \| projects \| blog 414 posts in 265 days 165 days ago	Topic tags/keywords: cheval mirror I’m thinking of trying to build a Cheval (?) Mirror to go with the blanket chest I built. This seems like a relatively simple project, but I’m not sure where to go for the hardware. Does anyone here have any ideas? Also, I’m planning to use a pretty cheap mirror I picked up for about $20. It is about 14” by 48”. Do you forsee any problems with this? I’m thinking if it doesn’t stand the test of time, it would be easy to swap out, but I’d love to hear others thoughts. The hardware is my number one concern right now. Thanks!

HokieMojo home \| projects \| blog 414 posts in 265 days 164 days ago	Those are some great options! Thanks a ton Doug!
HokieMojo home \| projects \| blog 414 posts in 265 days 164 days ago	Doh! I went to order and the $5 part will cost $7 in shipping. That seems a bit excessive. I’m going to hold off for a little while in case I need anything else in the future and can combine things into one order, but I don’t want to spend money just to “save” money. I checked woodcraft, but they don’t appear to carry this part. Oh well.
Douglas Bordner home \| projects \| blog 2732 posts in 600 days 164 days ago	Have them send you the woodworking and hardware catalogues (gardening too, if you wish). I’m sure you can find a few things to fill out your order… ;^D -- "Bordnerizing" perfectly good lumber for over a decade.
