Agent Viper Legendary Offline --> Posts: 2,220 --> Join Date: Aug 2007	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! __________________ This is war, survival is your responsibility.

Beast from the east May the force be with you Offline --> Posts: 967 --> Join Date: Jul 2008	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. __________________ My Collections http://www.flickr.com/photos/22356329@N03/sets/

I got a cheap light tent for 20.00 bucks and that was with shipping! http://cgi.ebay.com/24-60cm-Photo-S...=item2c5541233d 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 __________________ "All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.
