Yeah that's an ill setup! Gotta dig the SP!

What camera and lens did you use to take this picture? I wanna cop a wide angle lens myself haha.

Thanks everyone. The traps are Real Traps ... I used a Canon 7D with a Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L lens. I rented the lens for week. Not sure I'd use such a wide lens enough to justify buying such a pricey piece of glass.

You should build them yourself. More work, but it's A LOT cheaper and you can make them any size you want! I built my own! That site charges $51 per 24x48x2. Mine came out to roughly $20 per panel of that same size, and that's only because I used really expensive fabric. If I had went with burlap like most people do, they would have been even cheaper to make. And I used the same exact insulation material they use; Roxul AFB.

Word... I actually considered that too. makes sense when u put in terms of dollars spent. i have some plans/instructions for that too. just never went for it. Where'd u get the Roxul AFB from? Material? Sh!t this should be a thread of it's own.

I got it from a building supply warehouse called Marjam in Newark, NJ. But they have other locations across the country. Any building supplier should have it. You won't find it at places like Home Depot or Lowes. You have to get it from a place that sells shit to contractors and major builders.
