I am not going to cover building the frame to much here as it is the same process and nearly the same size as my 32 LED Infinity Mirror. Only difference is the inner walls do not have any holes drilled in them and the outer walls should be a 1/4"-1/2" wider to accommodated the LED array.

The plans in the image below is for the 32 LED mirror. Rest are for this projects mirror frame.

Find where you will want the DC Jack and switches, I always choose a corner. Later the 2 switches will be soldered on some perfboard to be mounted in the holes. Take a look at your switches and find their spacing. With some masking or painters tape put some tape in the area of the holes and mark your layout on the tape.

Drill the holes for the 2 switches, I used a 5/16" bit to drill them out then a utility knife to cut them more square. They will later get a black decal over them to hide the switches nearly completely.
