Hi, The lighting Joris Kempen has is excellent, its a diffused light, enough to limit the effects of shadowing. best is either cool/daylight. a warm white gives off less light but is used to add a warm feel to a room.
You can achieve the above with a 600mmby600mm led panel fitting and separately the surface framework. However, that said you could make a wooden frame to fit the light panel into.
They make them in different sizes, but the square 600s are the cheapest, as they are fit to replace the suspended ceiling tile.They are not IP rated against the ingress of dust, I haven’t fitted any for a duration of time to notice dimming due to dust but suspect this will play out as the only disadvantage.
The amount of heat they produce is also limited.The 600` panels cost from £20 plus vat, a branded panel costing considerably more. surface fixings also cost about £20 plus vat you can get the low profile or general type.
If you want to get a good light over a machine (Laith or a bandsaw) try a warm white 10watt flood light (mounted approx within 1 metre away from the subject. they are easy to mount and come with a flex cable already attached.this is a specific light for a specific light demanding area.
I mentioned warm white but this is a personal preference as a cool white may be to harch in close proximity.Another lighting is LED strips fitted under the underside of a cupboard that is located just above a workbench area.
