More Light

Post by berry »

Like many old farts I can't get enough light where I need it in the shop. This was especially true with my old routers and under the SS. So I bought one of these LED head lamps.

I cut off the headband and added Velcro strips to the lamp, my routers and under the table of my upgraded 500.

This works pretty well and doesn't cost much.

I just wear the headlamp on my head and it works with all my tools! :)

It's the most used tool in my garage (I would love to have a dedicated shop like many of you have).
