Damn it I thought I was going to get some expert welding tips, wait I believe I saw the appropriate emoticon...:yousuck2:lol Plus your avatar continues to give me lathe chuck drool. Thanks for the pic I'll check back on that. It was a real nice install it looks factory.

Well I can still give you some tips on welding but those are closely guarded secrets that I can not share! :rofl:

Thanks again! Yup I love 6 jaw chucks, true chuck porn! I have another 6 jaw on the way but not another Bison, an asian import for my rotary table. I'm very curious to see it, I'll post it here.

Do you have a pic of the table with the light on vs off?

Sorry it took so long.....

I'm no photographer so I'm not good with camera settings & capturing accurate photos but here they are. I put in the drill chuck to simulate something that would be in the way of lighting, hope it gives you a good idea.


With just overhead fluorescent lights.

Halogen light + spindle light

Thanks I prefer the spindle light only, that's quite an improvement I may adapt to my drill press.
 
No problem. Yeah, what I like the most is that there's really no shadows rather than having just a single light on either side.
 
Exactly, its also that tungsten type of white/blue light which I find easier to see in. My distance vision is better than 20/20 but my up close vision is going to hell on me. I recently graduated to +2.00 reading glasses, without them everything up close is a blur. I'm fine on the lathe I have one of my 6 bulb daylight fixtures right over it they are like the sun. I see even your camera prefers the second picture, check out the rulers in all three pics the second looks the most crisp to me.
 
Good eye! That's very true about the ruler, I planned on doing some closer pics of the ruler & is why I threw it in there but I didn't want to flood another post with a lot of pictures. Who knows if I will do more on lighting one day, can never have too much! ;)
 
Agree you can't have too much light, here's 30 bulbs of shop light power emanating from my 3 car garage, cue the close encounters of the third kind theme song!

Holy crap! :lmao:

I think I need more lighting too! You'd probably can't see &%$* in my garage.

Nice truck!
