This is how to build a replica of Westcott's DP C47 kit, that retails for $600.
By following the instructions listed in this video, you can construct the same frame, for less than $350 or so. In total, these parts run about $360, but if you are into film/video, odds are you already own fabric, and the $50 Matthellini clamp.
Quick note, the clamp that comes with the Westcott kit is absolute garbage and should be thrown away. With that said, the Westcott DP C47 kit will end up running you $650.
