question

Can the two pieces be separate so two 4x6? OR be modify into 4x4 frame or 8x8?
Asked by: Nelson
Yes this can be separated to have (2) 4 x 6 frames. If you needed to make one of the frames into 4 x 4, you would need to use (4) of the Scrim Jim Cine Frame Tubes in 46 plus (4) of the Scrim Jim 2D Corner Frame Connectors. For the 8 x 8 size, you would just need to double up those parts.

I would like to know exactly what size frame ...

I would like to know exactly what size frame tubes (and how many of each) come in this kit. The Westcott site seems to indicate (8) 46" tubes and (4) 22" tubes. But their "How to Assemble" video says (8) 34" tubes and (8) 22" tubes. B&H's listing for this kit only mentions 22" tubes. Which is it?
Asked by: Wolfbunny
Zach, Thank you for your question. We recently made the change to use fewer tubes to make traveling simpler. We will be updating the video.

question

how much does this kit weight?
Asked by: Joseph S.
The kit is very new and Westcott does not yet have the specifications on the weight. But with each piece it seems the total weight of the kit should be approximately 8.5 lbs.
