Looking to Construct My New Light Tent
 
I need some tips on it.

The articles I've read on making one at home is just to cut windows in a box, then either tape fabric or paper over them. I've been doing this, just I'm not getting the full light I'm wanting.

Another article I read was to make the whole box out of white foamboard sheets. I'm going to attempt to try this but with a black sheet for the background.

If anyone can help it'll be great!

I picked up locally for $100 last christmas. To me its worth it. Check on ebay as well. Some stuff like that on cheaper than locally like a Camera I just bought for $130 shipped and a camera locally was over $200 plus 15% tax.
A $100 may seem like a lot but save up for one.

He's right bro! I got a cheap light tent for 20.00 bucks and that was with
shipping!

The only draw back to this
light tent is it warps after a while but I just put wieghting at the
bottomm of it! I also like rising my dips about fie inches when in the light tent so the wieghts help with that too! I use thenlong boxes the 25 five packs came in!'lol
