Popular Post gee-dub Posted June 21, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 I've been spoiled by the small profile, unobtrusive, LED goose neck light on my DP and smaller bandsaw. Dad's Delta had the original lamp fixture which works fine but . . . This outlet is always hot so I can use the light for setup prior to turning the DP on. I could have hardwired the LED lamp in but I've been doing this long enough to know to future proof my builds when I can. Now I have to decide whether to keep the Rockler table dad used, move the Woodpecker table I'm used to, or shop build a custom one. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonPacific Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Nice upgrade. I use similar (or possibly identical?) lights marketed for sewing machines on a few tools. They also make decent spot-lights for small photography if you add a second layer of light diffusing plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chestnut Posted June 22, 2022 Report Share Posted June 22, 2022 So are you running 2 drill presses now? It's interesting learning about different people's work flow because if my drill press disappeared it'd take me a long time to realize. 11 hours ago, JohnG said: Your link takes me to a Zoom meeting… Was it a good meeting?

I would hate to be without a drill press but the second one will most likely find a new home. I have been mulling it over and cannot think of a way it would be of enough value to dedicate the space. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount it sideways so you never have to rotate your stock... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
