Title: Look Ma no shadow
Post by: moonlighter on May 02, 2019, 11:25:42 am

This is a stereo light I added to my Delta 40-694 saw.  The lights were from IKEA (about $10@).  There is a little shadow because one light is stronger than the other.  The thin brace I had to add for support because even with the little vibration one would sag (weak coils ?) so I added to both, it sill allows any adjustment needed.
I removed the blade storage on the top which wasn't used anyway.

Can you tell us a bit more about the lights?

Had a quick look at the Ikea website, and can't figure out which lights you got, or how they are mounted.

Thanks!

They are Janslo 3.859.41 now 12.99@.  I took the base off and mounted to a alum rt angle  bar.   Diff colors are available if you want to match the saw.

I just remembered I had another pic. Here is view from top, better pic of mounting.
This was before I added the support bars. I also have clear plastic cover over the switches.  Didn't feel like it was worth it  to tear into them to make one sw control both lights.
