    Making a reflector is kinda easy dude.
    Throw some of your handy work at it.
    The most basic form you can make is a flat surface wood or better yet metal which is painted white.
    If you bend the surface a bit you'd end up with a pretty nifty reflector if :

    a. You chose wood and made sure the lamp can get rid of its heat through convection.
    b. You chose metal and made sure it is impossible to electrify the reflector and you made sure the lamp can get rid of its heat through convection.

    p.s. : very cute fluro bulbs you got there buddy! I hope you can post us a grow journal or so.
