Hi John, hopefully you have gotten a light or two by now. I worked for many years doing lighting design and installations. You may want to look at installing two or more lights to hit the “task” from different angles. The specifics of your issue will be different than everyone else in minor ways but the principles will be the same.
IF you look at an outdoor recreation field you will see the players will have several shadows following them around the field. This may be better than one shadow (from your head) if you place the light source directly overhead. IF your chisels are really sharp you do want to see where the pointy part is going. ;>)
As to the natural spectrum issue. I would be cautious of any sales rep stating he/she has full natural spectrum lamps. Take a quick look online at ‘visible light spectrum’ you will see a LOT of results. Usually LED’s or fluorescents will have a colour temperature rating (3000k 5000k) k standing for degrees Kelvin.
Good luck
My opinion, for what it is worth, is NEVER sell or dispose of a tool. Opinions are worth only what you pay for them, so, look to your own heart.
I see by the date your time limit expired (it is now October 24) I will you luck and good wood working either with the old 71 or a new one.
I trust you will make something using either tool.
Cheers
