Here ya go!
The mirror hangs flush to the wall and is held totally secure by two
hollow wall anchors into keyholes on the back of the frame.
I wish to note that this is not my design, it is David Marks from his
program Wood Works. The actual detail of the mirror is mine. David
does NOT give enough info to copy his. I could only make mine look
like his.
And because I don't have a multi-router, I did my mortises in a
different manner that arrived at the same goal. Mine is also slightly
thicker to allow room for the ball bearing guide on the roundover
bits. I guess it slipped Dave's mind to relate that detail
I did the carving mostly the way he did, with a die grinder and those
carbide burrs, but I ended up not using the rifflers, instead I used a
series of carving gouges to refine the details. I'm certainly
nobodies carver, I'd do better if I were to repeat this.
Of course even though I could easily do it, the 9 templates, the jig
for mortising and probably even the ellipse jig for the router will
likely go unused.

Very cool! Can you snap a few close ups of the carved sections?
