Workbench update...

 






My work bench space has been getting increasingly smaller, with test gear encroaching into the "work zone". Finally, I could take no more. I found plenty of scrap wood in the barn to fix this. I set the table saw up, ripped some 2x12 scrap into 2x4 size, cut some scrap 1/2" ply for the top, and built an extension. Wow, this is much more comfortable!

LED Workbench Lighting...

So, I'm cheap. Here's an example... I have a 4' light over my workbench, but wanted some additional lighting that was adjustable. I picked up 2 gooseneck desk lamps at Dollar Tree for a buck each (before they went to "everything's a $1.25"), reappropriated an outer cover from an old Motorola Micor, and had some old double-sided tape. I put that together, slipped it under my audio analyzer on the shelf, and this is the result :-)
