Light box for use with lamp kit and standard light bulb sized lights. uses magnets to attach and detach grid. I used a Philips A19 smart bulb so i can change color, intensity…etc. also used the lamp kit link below for the power. I didn't use any diffuser but you could slip a piece of wax paper in between the box and the grid for that if needed. I'm also going to attach some aluminum foil to the inside of the box for extra reflectivity. Also had a hex hole to attach a ¼-20 thread nut on the bottom for any standard stand.
