I went to buy some casters and cheap saw blades at Harbour Freight (Shhhhh.. . . Please don't tell!)
While there I chanced across a goose neck mini lamp that promises to eliminate the shadow at the saw cut. I discussed this problem in my earlier post on lights for the Grizzly.
It does a perfect job. The LED head slips nicely inside the red blade guard and while the blade is admittedly near by, there is ample room and no risk of interference once it's secured.
It's powered by three common tiny batteries and is equipped with a red laser of questionable value as well as small but powerful magnet. I suppose the magnet mind lend itself to securing the lamp. We'll see.
At $2.99 for the whole unit and three spare batteries, how could I say no?
BTW, the shot taken of the new small lamp, was done without benefit of the lights installed earlier.
