Hey Striker

It looks like Mr Ponders has volunteered me for this task. Let's get together and specify your requirements and then we can build one. They are relatively cheap and easy to construct.

Cheers

Dennis

We'll document the design and build process and include photos of the construction and finished product, as I'm sure that Mike will be asking for a "How To" article when he reads your post.....

Cheers

Dennis

Don't forget Eddie's article here, which has lightbox construction at the end:

Digital Imaging - Flats and Darks Explained! (http://www.iceinspace.com.au/index.php?id=63,211,0,0,1,0)

If your construction differs from that, or is more comprehensive in it's instruction, then please by all means a "how to" would be great :)

If it's for flat's you might not need it - I use the dusk/dawn sky for mine. When I bother - I have to admit I'm quite lazy in regards to flat frames. But I'm sure you've been through all those options Tony.

May I please remind you learned gentlemen that Signor Striker has not actually specified whether it is a box with lights in it that he wants or a light(weight) box to carry his OTA in...:P

Thanks Roger,

yeah I do them at dawn....I would just like to do them at the end of a night session then have to wait till next day to do the flats.
But there is no hurry for this..I am happy to do the flats as per now so no rush Dennis.

Even after Christmas is fine.

I will leave the above mentioned by Phil to your imagination...lol
