Hey Guys,
I'm finally, kinda, almost! done getting the DRO onto my mill, and now that it's back together, I'm dealing with properly lighting it. I bought a couple cheap LED sewing machine lights with magnetic bases (2, so that I can light from both sides of the head to eliminate shadows), along with an LED ring light for a car headlight that I'll be mounting to the quill and using for additional shadowless lighting. With all of these new things, I'd like to figure out some kind of decent accessory wiring box on the side of the mill. Can someone on here give me the basics on terminal block wiring? I'm thinking I want some kind of NEMA enclosure with a hot and neutral screw terminal strip and then possibly a +12V and ground screw terminal strip. Thoughts? Suggestions? What do I search for to find ones that are meant to mount in an enclosure?
For reference, these are the lights:

Thanks,
