I have a hard time reading the compound markings so I mounted an LED light behind the lathe. Works good for setting the compound but too bright to leave on. After thinking about it for a while I came up with a plan. I would make a light frame. As I was collecting parts for the LED I started on the frame. Then I thought why not a shelf and tool holder. The frame is 2' x 1/8 channel. That mocked up pretty well but it took the storage space for my Allen wrenches. A HF magnet and a short length of 1/2 square tubing with a few holes drilled at an angle created an Allen wrenches holder and had space for a couple wrenches. I have installed this frame to the lathe stand. Works well for me.
