So off to Bunnings (Home Depot type shop for the US-ians) I went, and I purchased a bunch of 20mm PVC pipes, 90 bends, Tee Joints and a couple clamps. I got a 2mm thick sheet of Opal Perspex from a place called Pacific West Corporation in Wetherill Park, Sydney. So with all the goods in the boot, I went home to assemble it all.

This is what I came up with.



The Perspex is 665mm wide, 1000mm long. The pipes came 1m long, so I had to do some cutting. I also have a sheet that's 1000mm x 1750mm for any larger items, but I'll have to construct a sturdier frame for that.

Using a Metz 48 AF-1 and some foam core, this is what the end result looks like. The image on the left is straight out of camera, right is after post processing.
