SkyChimp I can imagine your budget is <$50.  In that case a cardboard box will do fine.

remember .. measure twice cut once.. and if your using power tool get a grown up to supervise(if your not grown up already)
and if you no remember if you build in the garage make sure it fits through the doors of the house,, and of course get parental permnission..
