    That is the only light on in the room, the bottom two braces will have a sheet of plywood across them, did not buy plywood on my trip to lowes, that part was added afterwards.

    The roll of what looks like white vinyl on the table is actually the blue reflective.

    What other things that I have not thought of can this be used for other then layering vinyl on the bench?

    thats a really nice lighttable. glass would be a bit too hard for me to work on personally. your picture with it on is so bright it looks like a 3d grafic.
    beautiful.

    Here is my first creation using it, It was so nice to see what it would and should look like after it was applied.

    Nice table. Be lost without mine too, although I don’t do as much translucent work as I used to.

    Thanks for sharing

    It does draw bugs! Think I also need to add a bug zapper when the door is open.

    Looks pretty good and they are a handy bit of kit to have, even for jobs like weeding light coloured vinyl, have you got a diffuser under the glass at all as it is difficult to tell from the picture, its certainly bright and I would have thought you would need a pair of welding goggles if working over it !!
    A bit of backlit film under the glass does a pretty good job for me.

    If bugs are a problem just move to Scotland and you wont have any more problems like that at all :lol1:

    i can’t find the full length pic of my bench, guess it was lost with a load of stuff when my hdd crashed a few months back, but this old pic gives a good idea of it,

    all i used under it was some transluscent white vinyl, though i really should have thought to apply it before i stuck the glass down !! applying it upside down was a right pig of a job !!

    I have to say sorry, my comments were rather rude, but I still think that looks bad.

    The light box looks good though 😮
