Good advice, Jin.

Walls can be produced from three 2x4 boards (one of them cut in 
half), which are available fairly cheaply at chain home improvement 
stores. Home Depot has them for $1.82 each; be sure to select 
straight, untwisted boards. Add a four-pack of steel corner brackets 
with screws for about $5, for a total cost of about twelve bucks. (Or 
use a more make-shift corner solution--the only requirement is that 
the walls be held square. A private lumber yard would charge more for 
the wood, but might take kindly to the idea and donate board.
