    Spotlight for drillpress etc..

    Made a spotlight.

    It has magnet as a stand, so it can be mounted to metal objects near me when i need more light.

    Used 12v led, transformer, 45mm diameter stainless pipe with 1mm wall and 0.85mm stainless sheet.
    Welds with tig.

    Magnet was 3€, Led 6€ inc resistor.
