I've finally settled enough to buy a decent piece of furniture that qualifies as a fly tying desk... which simply means that my SO has allowed me to place a desk in a place that others might stumble across it. In my earlier years, I often tied near a window using natural light. My backup lighting was an Ott Lite, a recommendation from my mother, an avid sewer (the stitching kind... 8^} ). Since purchasing a desk which sits no where near a window, and not having the light that I'd need, I'd like some recommendations from others facing similar situations. As I've said, I've used Ott Lites in the past. I currently have two desk models which aren't tall enough to provide light without shadows. I have a third desk model (again, Ott Lite ) currently in use over my computer area which has the height I need, but requires more of a "lip" to mount on my tying desk. The desk I purchased was a nice piece of furniture, but doesn't have the edge needed to secure a clamp style mount. I don't mind drilling some holes to secure a mounting "slab", but I want to make sure I purchase the best light for tying. After a bit of research, I've come across the Blue Max light. I don't have room on the desk for the 70W desk lamp, but, by bolting a piece to my desktop, I could attach a 43W workstation light. I don't have any experience with Verilux and was wondering what others might be able to add... Thanks in advance, Rake... (aka Mike)
