    Build your own astrophotography light box

    G'day again!

    I have been having lots of fun this week, building a lightbox. I would like to share it, seeing as it was so much fun and is a must for astrophotography as far as I can tell so far, experimenting with "flat" frames in my image stacking and processing.

    Here is a complete tutorial on building the lightbox.

    My good friend Ron from www.aussiepeople.com.au has been kind enough to load this up for me during his Easter break. Bless you Ron.

    I hope everyone gets something out of this and has fun building one of their own!

    HAPPY EASTER!

    Great article Baz. It should be a great aid to others who have needed a way to take good flats, but were unsure how to go about building a light box.
