om one end of the
bench to the other, is to stretch a wire from one end of the bench to
the other. Steel or copper about 10 or 12 B & S gauge may be used.
Stretch it about four or five feet above top of bench directly above
where the light is most needed. If You have a double charging bench,
stretch the wire directly above middle of bench. Before fastening wire
to support, slip an old fashioned porcelain knob (or an ordinary
thread spool) on the wire. The drop cord is to be tied to this knob or
spool at whatever height you wish the light to hang (a few inches
lower than your head is the right height).
Put the ceiling rosette above center of bench; cut your drop cord long
enough so that you can slide the light from one end of bench to the
other after being attached to rosette. Put vaseline on the wire so the
fumes of gas will not corrode it. This will also make the spool slide
easily. This gives you a movable, flexible light, with which you will
reach any battery on bench for inspection. The work bench light can be
rigged up the same way and a 75 or 100 Watt nitrogen lamp used.
