On the 4×132 edge sander, a two-tube fluroescent:
These were stylish in dining areas what, 40 years ago? I went looking for one, and finally found it. It’s up out of the way most of the time, but when I need to sort through screws or bolts or brackets or hooks in the ten drawer cabinet below (originally I think for technical drawings in a classroom; I bought it from the school district at a surplus sale), I just pull it down. It’s a clever design and highly practical in this location.

You light up my life !...err ..shop.. Most excelent use of lights and other things most toss..my favourite light is one my youngest
picked up for 50 cents at a garage sale, the 100 watt bulb in a metal cone on an articulated arm.. Granted I had to add a couple of springs and a few nuts to make that part functional, as well as a bulb..
BUT.. it sits in a custom 3/4” holder, cherry dowell, with a walnut hockey puck to keep it from falling through , that drops into a bench dog hole, giving light anywhere on the bench I need.. Three are’s again !! Beautiful series !
