Hi all,
New to Knife dogs
I am looking for a light to mount on my GIB grinder would like to get your suggestions on the matter.
I would like to use a nice bright LED light. Any suggestions? Should add that I want to mount it to the bench or the grinder.
Thanks!

I use those magnetic base lights all over the place. Not had much luck with any clamp on ones. Harbour Freight used to have them for cheap. Online about $40.00.

Yep thats the type of light I want so far all I have found has been in the $70.00 - $300.00 + for led lights.
Thanks for the reply!

Got the light today for the price its not bad at all.
I will add a plate to the tool rest as the magnet is not real strong on a 1.5 in square. And I going to add a diffuser lens as the spot is small. IT IS VERY BRIGHT! The clamp is plastic we will see how that last LOL
