Default Building a simple set - pictures

Decided this weekend that I would love to build a wooden set to use for a shoot. Total price for the items was about $210, and not too much labor (3 hours most).

Lots of pictures, I hope it may motivate other members to try something like this.

All items were bought at home depot. Including

3 Traffic Master Honey Oak Wood Floor Panels ($51.89 each)
2 4x8 1/2 inch Ply ($10.00 each)
6 2x6 Untreated wood ($3.00 each)

Stuff I also used and had hangin about was gaffers tape, room mate labor, and several props.

































some sample of pictures shot here

Sweet set up. I am thinking of doing something similar for my garage set up.
