Extendable Scissor Lamp

  • No workshop is complete without a shop light. I built a scissor mechanism so it can extend and swivel over the workbench; I even added some braided lamp cord for that industrial look. It's amazing what you can build with some scrap wood!
    Mounting the lamp required a unique solution so that the lamp could tuck away when not needed, but also peek around the corner to be able to extend the entire span of the workbench. Some black iron pipe adds to the aesthetic and allows for a full range of motion.
    The main inspiration can be found here:
    woodgears.ca/reader/walters/s...
    However I modified the design so that the mechanism parts weren't permanently glued in place. Gluing the parts together means that if something gets tight and needs adjustment, there aren't many options for troubleshooting. Using hardware is more expensive, but this thing is completely adjustable and comes apart completely if need be.
    There is enough room on the end to add more gadgets if needed, I'm considering a magnifying glass which would be useful.

    No talk or long-winded narration, no obnoxiously bad royalty-free music, just straight-up build footage and assembly. Instant subscribe.

    Very cool! Quite clever! Can never have enough lighting where you need it in the shop! Thanks for taking the time & effort to video it and share it with us!

    Impossibly cool, stunningly beautiful and insanely overbuilt. God bless you.

    Scissor extensions are so cool. They have a compact feeling that's hard to replicate with other sliding mechanisms.

    I watched this video because I was interested in the scissor lamp build. It’s a very clever and wonderful project. But what is even better is the craftsmanship and over-the-top-quality of the video production. Fantastic video!

    I wish UA-cam would allow UA-camrs to set their ads to silent... Had this turned up to listen to the soothing workshop sounds and OH MAN

    • @tovsteh
      @tovsteh 4 роки тому +3

      As intrusive as ads are, the whole point of ads is to get your attention, if even just for a second. Google is an ad company. It would be highly counter-productive for them to add a function that automatically mutes their sponsors ads.

    • @Thornspyre
      @Thornspyre 4 роки тому +3

      Of course you can just block the ads withAdBlock or Ghostly or other adblockers
      People say you shouldnt do this because it eats into the YTers potential profits, but actually it just eats into their sponsors profits, it hurts the big man not the little man, and since its the big man thats annoying me, and the little man thats pleasing me, im totally fine with that

    Now I know how it is done ... I just need all the machinery. As a joke, I watched the whole video because something that seemed simple to do, was more complicated for it to work as it should. Ingenious, with details and made with wood and water pipes. I also always enjoy observing each one's ability in his trade. Good job.

    I made one of these from two old expanding coat racks someone threw out and some odds and ends laying around the shop. I still use it over my lathe. To be honest though, mine might be cheaper (although just as functional) yours is much more aesthetically pleasing

      The subjects covered in this woodworking website t.co/z6o0f8z2H4 varies from wood types to tool types and uses. A few other subjects range from the various kinds of wood along with their distinct levels of difficulty when it comes to managing them. If you are still a beginner in wood working, then you will find this book very beneficial.

    that came out great, but you’re going to have to modify it just a little because you can’t turn that assembly without loosing that hand nut.
    put that metal collar and hand nut and locate it underneath so the base can swivel on the pipe but it’s testing on the metal collar so it can swivel left and right.
