RGT Traditional Room Box kit
What's one more log on the fire?! Behold the beginning of The Maple Room. Why that particular name? I just thought it was nicer than "that there room box."
This is the Traditional Room Box Kit from Real Good Toys. I was in a shopping mood the other day and had the monies I won for Roland's Retreat, so I ordered the room box kit and some miscellaneous trims they had on sale.
I've thought for a long time now how great it would be to have an actual room box I could take out, plug in and go. :] I especially like that this has a plexiglass front and top to keep the dust out and perhaps to store items I'd like to see but not have to dust in between photography studio use. It's a large room but will fit on my bookshelf easily. It will also be easy to place tissue over the top plexiglass to diffuse the lighting.
I will be making both the front and top removable since the front piece would cause glare in photographs. My plan is to also make channels so I can use different papers as needed for the scenes. Hmm...like the changing seasons...maybe The Maple Room name makes more sense than I realized.
I did think about buying wood supplies and doing it all myself, but that would have defeated the purpose of a quick build and I had the monies to spend!
