I've been given some large pieces of art to shoot and I need to build a relatively cheap and dirty fridge sized diffusion box - the pieces are mixed metal and felted wool.
Anybody got good ideas for which gauzy fabric to buy to line the big box?
Also, anybody within 40 miles of Cape Cod, MA have a flash meter I could borrow for a couple days, ha ha ha...
Open to slide film suggestions too. The new Velvia 100F is slightly less instense than the 50 and less blue as well, but I'm wondering about the Kodaks. Any of them close to neutral? I guess I could use a warming filter to cut the blue in the Fujis...
Thanks for suggestions

Emily,
If you can hang tight for a couple hours, I'll post a sketch of the world's greatest, cheapest, and simplest diffusion rig. I need to draw it and post it on my web page.
