All you need are four elbows, some piping and the screen (2" x 3" suggested) and some zip ties to secure the screen. Don't bother with pipe glue. There's no need and moving it at a future date will be easier.
My first thought was of PVC... I have used it before to good effect making Ham Radio antennas. But I thought I read somewhere here that PVC was dangerous to use around plants because of gases that are expelled from the plastic in a hot situation. I thought that I might be alright since I am not using "hot" bulbs... and it certainly would be easier to work with than the aluminum I was thinking of using. Any thoughts about this?
