Wall Mounted Light Box

Step 17 Create a reflector

without something to reflect the light forward, your box is going to only be bright at the bottom. i used aluminum foil for this task.

to attach the foil to the box, i found a strip of scrap masonite and loosely screwed it toward the front of the top of the box, making sure there was a gap between the strip and the box top.

i then inserted aluminum foil into the gap and tightened the screws. this held the foil to the top of the box without trying to tape it to the chipboard.

i pulled the foil down and tucked it behind the light, using tape to hold it to the masonite back.
