If your into diy you could try to make your own lumenarc and scale it down to what you need.

There are some really cool ideas here for sure.

I am into DIY but not so good at it

I think I will stick to buying some reflectors although those ideas are pretty cool. Thanks!

EDIT: Actually if i can find the material I may just give that a shot...it doesn't look too hard.

Yeah after reading more and seeing how well these DIY reflectors are turning out with the printable template, I am going this route for sure.










You can make two of the 14" (minis) for about $100 using tubular sylight aluminum (95% reflectivity). Pretty good. Just have to find the aluminum somewhere now.
