Hey Bruce, thanks.
The more I look into it, the more I think you're right that homemade is
the way to go. I have light stands all over the place, so putting
together a frame/circle would be my next step.

Doug, I have an AF160FC that is collecting dust. Practically new as it
never saw much use. But if you feel the Sigma is pricey then you'd not
want my Pentax. :)
Home made ring lights are good for portraiture. Larger ring diameters
are usually more flattering than tiny macro rings. Another look that's
excellent is to arrange a few strip lights in a triangle or square
shape then shoot through that. Or you could try a few of those new LED
replacements for fluorescent tubes that you can get at Walmart now.

I am interested, for unknown reasons, to use a ring light for
portrait work
on certain subjects, so I'm appealing to the group mind for
recommendations
for ring lights that work with Pentax cameras.
If you have one an want to get rid of it, talk to me. Or, if you have
one
and don't want to get rid of it, tell me what brand it is and let me
research.
Thanks much.
