If you're handy with tools and able to design & fabricate, building an
exposure unit is an easy weekend project. Construct a wooden box to hold
your bulbs and bulb sockets. 1"x6" boards with a thin plywood backing works
well. Position a large piece of sheet metal immediately behind the bulbs -
otherwise they won't turn on. Go to a electrical supply house to buy the
bulbs and associated hardware."
 
 
Thanks for the welcome. Yeah, it's difficult to be a painter/artist type
without knowing about power tools and fabricating.
