Gunrunner you need to order a set of these for the Z axis hand crank. Bill did you just spit coffee on your monitor? :rofl:

I wish, I have a sherline and I do not have a way to mount it, but maybe could build a swing arm to put it in the rite position.
How bright is it.

Any pics of it mounted? Or is that what your having a hard time posting?

 

[dgehricke]

here are some photos of it mounted and I have a very hard time finding how to post from the home page.
If you have a mini mill these lights sell for $53.00 at 24.95 its a steal
Hope this helps.

What is the diameter of the hole? I have an X2 variant but I also have a drill press that could use a light.

 

[dgehricke]

these are the dimensions as posted on the web site

[h=2]Product Details[/h] Product Dimensions: 7.1 x 5.9 x 3.9 inches Shipping Weight: 7.2 ounces (View shipping rates and policies) ASIN: B00FDMSREQ I would assume the 3.9 inch is the diameter it should fit yours easily. Regards dgehricke

I measured this today while I was making an adapter for mounting on the mill. My light measured out at 2.502 " inside diameter.
I started with a 1.102 thick piece of 4" dia 6061 Alum. I put 2 colors of dykem one side for the mill and the other for the light here are some photos,The work only took about 3 hrs.


will post photos of the finished product tomorrow.
