    PSA - Great Little Task Light

    I saw these on the Stumpy Nubs YouTube Channel and ordered one up. It lives up to the hype. Super bright and it has a very strong magnet. For $20 you can't go wrong. It's a permanent addition to my band saw. Get them at woodturnerswonders dot com. No affiliation.

    Sharp solves all manner of problems.

    Here's a link to the lamp. Looks like a good product.

    Note, however that shipping is $5.25

    Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good.

    I wasn't sure and I didn't want to run afoul of the rules. Thanks Mike.

    It's pretty nice that this format of lamp has also (and logically) moved to the LED format. I have an old halogen magnetic lamp on my bandsaw and when (not if) the hotter-than-hades bulb dies, I'll be replacing the whole thing with an LED type. I have inexpensive LED task lighting over my guitar bench because my body blocks some of the overhead light there and it's amazing what you can get for a very small chunk of change.

    I bought a very similar one on Amazon for about $15 and free Prime shipping.

    I have the same model but in white on my band saw and it works great It seems it was marketed as a sewing machine lamp.

    I don't have this but it looks similar for less with free shipping.https://www.amazon.com/Bonlux-Machin...=fsclp_pl_dp_2

    Another one (actually two) from Amazon -- https://www.amazon.com/EVISWIY-Light...0&sr=8-10&th=1

    I don't personally have any experience with these but they get good reviews and two for $16 would be hard to beat
