How powerful is the compact florescent?

@ChrispyCritter yes you can. you can also make a grid from black foam core, but that is a future upgrade project...

You probably could just use aluminum foil with the dull side out in the cooler and just glue it in with Elmer's glue. Foil's dull side is a great inexpensive light defuser I have used it for other lighting applications and it only costs penny's..try it sometime :)

Why bother making a softbox?
They're mostly pretty cheap...

@gonrog Well, three reasons:
1) I believe that if you're gonna buy something, buy quality. If you need cheap, might as well look at making one vs buying something flimsy. (Recycle?)
2) If you go buying every acessory you see, then wind up not liking it, you waste your money... If you make it and find yourself using it lots, you'll have a better idea of what features to look for while shopping.
3) I like making things. (see that HUGE Elinchrom unit in the background... definately NOT cheap).

@Danielitz123 Not me. I am dyslexic.
When diagnosed, I did pray to DOG for a miricle healing, that didn't work, so I went to the bra, and got drunk.
