Uhh, tell the truth now Chas, have you ever seen a mirror like that before? You gotta admit it's pretty cool.

Yes it is and a good find by you. But you've also never seen one like mine before. 
Nice that you posted something to help some guys for a change...

Patrick, what's really cool about the pic of the mirror is whatever is reflected in the mirror appears like a nice glass of German beer.

Glass and chrome cleaned. I'll let the silicone cure one more night before I untie the floss, thus releasing the internal spring and cork. BTW, the gasket, spring, and cork look like they could be fabbed pretty easily from Home Depot components instead of spending $25 on them.

he may like the use of dental floss.....but the perplexing part is the straw and the batteries.

I trimmed the straw to pass around the screw that extrudes from the back of the housing so that the three pieces of floss, which are looped around the top of the spring in 120 degree increments, pass inside the straw, along the screw, and are constricted at the top by the straw so that there is a nice, even "draw down" of the spring. I then wrapped the floss several times around the base of the screw, where it exits from the straw, and put a little blue tape to hold it. The batteries are for a small flashlight, off camera. You couldn't figure that out?
