So I got a wild hair. While cleaning my garage I came across some old Impact continuous lights that had aprox. 10" reflectors on them. So I pulled out the Dremmel and went to town.

What's the point you ask? There is no point. I was just bored and got a wild hair.
Will I ever use it? I dunno...doubt it. Maybe so...who knows. Was fun to do though.

Note: All shots were taken with the front edge of the modifier at exactly 5' from the wall.

Some shots of how it looked before and after...
