Bench Light
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Bench LightDecided to make a new light for my assembly / finishing bench. Hat tip to Ron Stewart who gave me the idea (https://www.lumberjocks.com/projects/413599 ). I used a retrofit flat recessed LED ceiling light that has a switch so you can change the color temperature from 3000K up to 5000K with 940 lumens ($17.88, link below). I also put a dimmer switch on it so I can get the perfect light for whatever project I have going. I put joints in so the light can be adjusted to any angle including the base that can turn 360 degrees. I put sandpaper at the joint intersections to give it a good bite when cinched down. I'm really happy with it and will probably make a dual-headed one for my actual workbench that will hang from the ceiling.I put a wooden washer on the base of the lamp arm and secured it with a long screw.I shaved down the corners of the plywood to make it round so it would rotate in the hole.Here is a link to the light I used:
