  1. Hand Mirror: One with a handle.
  2. Permanent Adhesive Squares: Foam adhesive is best since it bonds nicely with uneven surfaces.
  3. Pegs: Download and print pegs (STL attached. See Thingiverse for print details.). No 3D printer? Here are some options to get it printed.
  4. Cleaning Supplies: We like to use Isopropyl Alcohol and lint-free cloths.
  5. Small Level and Ruler: Not pictured. Alternatively you can use a tape measure.
