--- Quote from: PeterE on November 18, 2011, 05:47:03 AM --- Steves, I noticed that you have equipped your mini-mill (guessing something like SIEG X1) with a fixed light source in the form of an IKEA LED-lamp fastened to the top plate. How does that work??? I ask since I have the same thing just waiting to be attached. BR /Peter --- End quote --- Not guilty your honour? |

I believe Peter is referring to the stalk lamp visible on the red mill in the background... (see attached). |

@Steves: Oh, very sorry, I for some reason mixed up the names, :Doh: it is dickda1 who presented the pics to begin with, and it is of course to him I shall direct my question on the stalk lamp. @AdeV; Aha, a stalk lamp, so that is what that type of light is called in english, thanks very much! :thumbup: BR /Peter |

The IKEA lamp was on sale. I drilled a hole through the top plate and wound the cord out through the back. Plenty of room under the plate for a mounting nut. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20169658/ Not much of a project, but it works. I use another for the big mill. IKEA does market furniture with durability problems, but never had trouble with the lights. -Dick |
