Hi Craig
Thanks for the SBS... I remember seeing pics of the box over at the big A and have been meaning to ask you about it... this answered almost all my questions though...
have got one though.... would there be any improvement in drying times if the inside of the box was lined with tin foil?

Hey Guys,
I build mine with the drawings in the hand from Craig. I use a 100 W bulb, and the figure's are dry in one night.
Maybe sooner but i put the figure in the box when i go to sleep.
So Talino, it wouldn't burn your house down.

A Friend of mine has added a computer cooling fan (low voltage) to the side of his, so when the drying light is on inside, the fan keeps the warm air flowing around the piece, it dries a bit quicker and a little more matt, I think the box does have to be big enough so not to crowd the piece but it does work...
