im sorry, i am an idiot.. hot LIGHT.. not hot box.. gosh.. if i were guy... that would just.. ah never mind..

After doing some quick research, i found out that these are pretty easy to build... as long as you dont mind being a bit handy and cheap.

Supplies..

Home Depot

• Workforce(home depot brand) Halogen 500W Tripod Light- $18.00

• 8' PVC pipe (i used 3/4" Truefit Pipe standard length pipe they carry.) $2.02
• 4-90° elbows
• 1-T elbow
• 1-4way elbow
• 1 Twin Sheet from Target (250 Thread count, cheapie) $9.99

Measurements of PVP pipe
1x 25" (bottom piece)
2x 22" (side pieces)
2x 12- 1/4" (top pieces)
1x 12" (peice extending away from the lamp)


Pics to come..

I am not totally complete.. the sheet i bought still needs to be attached. I will be cutting it in half and putting velcro on the sides so that it can be removed easily.

I came here for the hot box instructions.

I could change the title but I kind of like it.

Shots today, with the hot light and one direct light above (one of those garage clamp lights.. that are like 8 bucks.. i have no clue what they are called)

We really liked the success we had with this setup but wished we had one on either side of him, so i plan to make a second one so we can sorta clam shell the lights..
