Balancing the can of wood conditioner on the saw horse triggered my nervousness, because if it was me, for sure, that can would have been knocked over. Nice vid. Good to see you included your mistake, which happens to everyone eventually.

Nice. I'm making a mirror frame out of old barnwood, so no staining required. Thanks for the pocket hole idea. I wasn't sure how to join and was just going to pin nail it all to the wall like my barnwood trim is. Now I just have to find someone with one that I can borrow. Cool that you are also in the Calgary area and like good music ;)

Thanks man. I’m gonna borrow ur idea and frame mine tomorrow exactly the same.

If you used miters on the joints you could rabbit everything and no need for the router ?

This is fantastic. Where did you order your mirror my good man?

Is that a actual heavy mirror?? or one of those flexible hang on the door mirrors??

How do you determine the measurements? I have two mirrors that are different sizes.

Would dowels work for the joints, i don't have a kreg jig ?

Hi! In the future, could you put a list of everything you use in your description? The mirror looks beautiful!! Thank you for the video.

Where do u get a mirror like that? One thats not the same price for a mirror already framed

I would say a half lap joint would be far stronger and you get a huge gluing surface. Plus its an easy joint, you can make the rails fit between the stiles like a true shaker style and not worry about the router hitting a pocket screw.

Thank you so much for inspiring me to build this.
I have a question, what can i do if i dont have a router?

@WildRoseDIY What size length pocket screws did you end up using to join the 1x4's ?

Lots of good advice here, but I question that saw-tooth picture hanger gizmo that you're expecting to support the weight of the mirror and frame long term. It's extra problematic because if/when it fails, most likely the mirror breaks when it hits the floor.
