 Made from PVC 1/2" pipe and fittings. It is great for $20! I do need to get more pipe to finish the cube (front pieces) and I'd like to put some bigger T-fittings on the two top rods so I could then put dowels on top to hang things from. So I may end up spending another $10 or so. The sheet was only $2.50 from Walmart; it is currently held in place by big clips on the bottom corners, but I may get fancy and put velcro on it. The backing is one of those cardboard display boards for kids, also from Walmart (forgot the price) and for now the floor is a foam board, couple bucks from Walmart. I'm still messing with lighting; these are supposed to be full-spectrum spots but they are really pink. Kind of a waste for $9 a pop. I use painters tape to put up the backdrops, it is really great because it holds but comes off easily and doesn't leave a sticky residue. This is a very fun project! My boyfriend thinks I am ABSOLUTELY nuts :-)

Used for this and this among others.

Nuts? Then you're not the only one. I've done setups in my basement with lights and stuff that even makes me question my sanity! Thanks for sharing your setup.
