One of the best things you can do if you are attempting to sell anything online is to make sure you have an adequate picture of the object. This picture will show the item in the best possible way and let your potential buyers know exactly what they are getting. If you have nowhere to place your item to get a good picture, you may want to consider building a light box to display the item. A light box can be easily built with items found at any home improvement store.
Instructions
1. Cut the pieces for your frame. You should have two pieces that are 23 inches long, four pieces that are 14 inches long and two pieces that are 16 inches long.
2. Sand down the edges of the pipe so they are smooth. Make sure your pieces are all the correct height, and sand down if need be.
3. Construct the top of the frame by creating a rectangle with two of the 23-inch pieces and the two 16-inch pieces. Put them together using the T-joints. Use the cement in the joints to solidify the frame.
4. Glue the caps to one end of all of your 14-inch pieces. Place the other ends in the elbows. Do not glue the elbows to the 14-inch pieces.
5. Place the frame on a flat surface. The T-joints on the corners should all have one slot open. This is where you will place the elbows, which are attached to the legs. Glue the elbows into these slots, making sure that the legs are at a 90-degree angle to the frame (use the square to get the angle correct). Repeat this for all four legs on all four corners.
6. Screw the sheet metal screws into the back edge on the frame. Punch holes in your backdrop that correspond to the frame, and hang your backdrop from them.
7. Place the sheet over the frame, leaving the front uncovered. The light will shine though the sheet on either side, giving the box a warm glow.
