I made a 2' x 3' cookie using black foamcore and an exacto knife in about 20 minutes. Your biggest problem is that they are kind of fragile.... I use a lowel prolight with barndoors to project light through mine, with the cookie mounted on its own lightstand with a grip clamp.
ps. I found the cost af blackfoil to be a little expensive. I went out and bought some cheap wide aluminum foil and then rolled about 10 feeet out on my garage floor on newspapers. I lightly painted it with flat black high temp paint. Once it dried I rolled it back up and now I roll out and use what I need. The paint seems to adhere well and for single or low multiple use situations it's a far cheaper way to get blackfoil, and you CAN get aluminum foil in some wider widths than blackfoil is traditionally available in.
