    You can build a light box for very, very little money. People use PVC
    pipe and white rip stop nylon; cardboard boxes; IKEA hampers; etc. 

    You can see a ton of real examples that jewelers use (including two
    of mine) in a presentation by Charles Lewton-Brain at the Metal Clay
    World Conference last year. 

    Here's the link to that:

    Here are links to two of my lightbox set ups, my old one, with
    homemade lightbox:

    and my new one, purchased light box:

    Related articles on the blog have links to great tutorial sites and
    where to buy a gradient gray background for only $10.00. 

    You can improve the quality of your photography, and you can do it
    cheaply.
