HELP?
Anyone out there have the dimensions to make a plexiglass booth for sugar work (warming the sugar for pulling, etc.). I've seen a couple of home-made ones at a convention, complete with the hot bulb and brooder-type shield but never thought of taking measurements. I recently acquired a 3'x7' piece of plexiglass that I want to cut up and attach hinges to for easy storage.
No magic dimensions--just whatever works for you.
Once you hang the heat lamp in the middle, you wind up with a very hot spot, a warm ring, and outer cool spots--all very useful at various times in the process.
My particular box is a 2ft. cube--3 sides of bent plexiglass, a wooden top with a hole for the heat lamp to hang thru, an open front, and a piece of pegboard inside the bottom with a silpat mat on top of that.

Here is a site that has some dimensions on it. As Blakes said there doesn't have to be an exact size, but it will give you an idea.
I have the one that is $165. I love it. It folds up and doesn't take up very much room.
