Lighting your paint Table

I use a variety of lights to illuminate my painting table and their combined output keeps my tan topped up year-round. Despite this, I am trying to be energy conscious and most of the gear I use is A-Rated for efficiency, which means there is still room for improvement.

  1. Great post Lee, I use 3 lamps, which don't give me a lot of light really, perhaps I need to invest in some better lights?

    1. Those folding lamps in my vid are from Hobbycraft (not sure if they sell them now though). Not cheap, and you need more than one, but they kick out a lot of light. And the heads can be angled so you can have two and direct the light at the centre of your table. The third lamp (the one I don't use) was a cheaper knockoff from Amazon and it's nowhere near as good.

  2. Interesting post Lee. I envy your permanent painting station.

    1. I'd like a bigger desk, but there's only so much space in a 7x8 room.
