Here is an easy way to make a cheap (only in terms of expenses) eBay Photo Studio.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • PVC Pipe (1/2") about 15 Feet
  • PVC Pipe Fittings 4-6
  • Clamp Lamps
  • Roll of White Background Paper
  • Garbage Bag Twist Ties
  • Daylight-Balanced Light Bulbs
  1. Step 1

    Cut the PVC pipe in to 5 pcs.

    2 pcs. about 40", 2 pcs. about 30" each, 1 about 50")

  2. Step 2

    Using the PVC fittings connect the pcs. to form a backdrop stand as shown in the above picture.
    The two 30" pcs. will be the base and come out towards you, the two 40" pcs will be the legs that rise vertically from the table, the largest pc. will go horizontally across the top to hold the legs in place as well as hold the backdrop paper.

  3. Step 3

    Once the stand is put together hang the backdrop paper from the PVC pipe going across by punching 3 holes (2 at the ends, 1 in the center) in the top of the paper and hang the paper from the pipe with garbage bag twist ties.

  4. Step 4

    Finally place the clamp lamps on the PVC pipe as shown below.

    Buy a tripod and a good Digital Camera and you are good to go.
