Thanks everyone.

20 feet of half-inch PVC = 1.94
 4  PVC 90 elbows@.18 =  .72
  1 old thin bedsheet      =   n/c
   4 used safety pins       =     "

Result 4' X 3' light bank

Total cost                      $2.66

Actually, bought PVC cement, but didn't need it.
The friction fit works fine. The pipe cut easily, just saw 
a groove around the perimeter (put a wrap of masking
tape around it to guide you) and snap it off. 
I just hung the frame from a ceiling planter hook to try it.
Works great. Try it.

Next.. a PCV frame covered with a $1.50 foil "space blanket"
for a reflector... or am I getting too expensive here?
