Mine was an octagonal one and almost went flying out the window!

Here's some vids showing how to do it (I think the different makes still work roughly the same way): Click and scroll down

I think you lay the outer out on the floor and insert rods into the centre ring the seat the ring and rods.. not put one of these together myself though... Only an Ebay light kit type softbox...
