X2 Spindle Light

(1/2) > >>

I made this Friday for my spindle on my X2 Milling machine.  It started off as a square piece of stock and I did most of the work with my mill and rotary table.  It consists of 18 ultra bright LED lights and they are glued in with 5 min epoxy.  This replaces the old spindle cover and uses the same bolt holes to mount.

That's a neat idea, thanks for sharing  :beer:

Very nice and a good idea.  You can never have to much light when working small bits.

Some good ideas.
Picked up this 'UFO' light from eBay a couple of months ago with the intention of installing it on the X2.
It would be a tight fit though as it's 20mm thick and the spindle (MT3) only sticks out 23mm.
I may end up gutting it to get the LEDs as the thickness is mostly due to the AA batteries inside.

Brass_Machine:
Very cool! Now I have to make one.

Whats the story on your control box?
