Magnifier lamp mod to keep it folded
« on: August 30, 2013, 10:38:42 am »
Just a quick hack I'm pretty fond of. I want to fold my magnifier lamp when its not in use to keep it from using too much space. The problem is the lamp keeps falling down and I got a sore throat from cursing when that happened. I thought of all kinds of latching contraptions but last week I got a better idea: use a magnet to hold the lamp. So I disassambled a random hard drive from my pile of hard drives to scavenge a magnet (the one used to position the heads) and stuck it onto the lamp housing using double sided tape (the strong stuff).

There are small lies, big lies and then there is what is on the screen of your oscilloscope.
