Creating a "shooting box"

[mknabster]

I want to build my own box that i can shoot subjects in, like bottles, toys, etc. I'm not quite sure, but it may be called a softbox? Is there any place where i can find instructions on how to construct one?

Here's another take on the same idea (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=139812).

Bill appears to have been first with it. In mine, the fitted sheet covers the front of the tent and prevents reflections of the camera from showing up on glossy subjects.

Gotta say I like the pvc idea better, easier to mess around with. Do you find there are stability issues with the pvc setup?
