That's quite a good design
Sainsbury's are selling off some 500mm x 340mm rectangular plastic
translucent trays link
They can be stood in front of flashguns or lights as diffusers or
held over a flower in the garden to diffuse sunlight etc. Three
tied together would make a good light tent.
The Wigan store was doing them for £1.35 each yesterday I bought four.

Looks good.
I'll have to buy a flash first, of course.

Why is it called a Beauty Dish?
Something to do with the light being more flattering for portraits?

Because the sitter wouldn't be very happy if you told them you were photographing them using an "Ugly Dish"
