You can get some good cheap ones from ebay. I paid under $20 for mine including shipping.

I also built one myself. Really easy and all you need is some PVC and a sheet. |

Man, if you really wanted to, you could get a sizeable cardboard box, spray it white and cut out holes for the lights.
I would imagine that coat hanger wire would work pretty well too...
Thanks for the thread though. I was just about to make something similar myself... I think I will make one that folds up. |

| SV makes a nice kit I bought a few weeks ago. Tent, two 500watt lights, white and black backdrops. The photo of the watch in my portfolio I took with it. Works fine, think it cost around 150 bucks. 24" tent, bigger than you think it is. |

I walked by a store that had unpacked some stuff and found some 3/4 inch thick styrofoam sheets that were fairly large. I bet that you could cut picture windows from them and stick them together with hinges or duct tape on the outside for that matter and make a pretty decent light tent as well... They were a couple feet wide. I see them there frequently, so I think I will grab some when I see some in better condition.
One man's trash..... |
