Small (9 inches) Light Box

Thanks! :slight_smile:

very nice but how can I get the file I only see a image of it on my side maybe I am dumb lol

The image is the file. Right click -> save as should work. Also, hold click and drag to desktop (or an open folder) should also work.

Fantastic post! I was just looking at amazon to buy one, there are too many options, I wasn’t sure which to buy. I thought to look on our GF community to see if there was a discussion about which box was best…and i stumbbled upon your past. This is just what very helpful information, thanks!

Just wanted to share that I used your pattern and made one of my own. I knew it wouldn’t work exactly because the material I have is 1/8 inch white mdf I bought from here:

(not sure if I am allowed to link the shop in here, it was my first purchase of material from this shop)
Since I adjusted the file to fit the material, I decided to share the finished pattern in case it would help someone else. The adjustments I made fit very nicely together, no glue was needed in the joints; I had to gently hammer each piece in. Very satisfied with it, can’t wait to use it, wondering what I have on hand to use as a backdrop.

For the diffusers, I used cheap, flexible polypropylene cutting boards that I cut to size (I bought 3 from Daiso…almost got away with two, but the hanger holes in the top of the board cast a weird shadow) The file has layers, I think they should show up, otherwise I’ll try to post my modifications as individual files. Hope someone can use this.
