Stratts Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Just thought I'd share this nifty little idea I had today for using the lightforce lamp without drilling a hole through my daily runaround shooting wagon roof.Use a double glass sucker handle thingy and take one of the suckers apart. Using the hole already in the plastic housing, attach a bit of strong board or formica approx 4" wide and the length to suit your arm. Wack a hole through the formica for the lightforce and handle with a hole saw, bolt it together and there you go.Hopefully it'll sucker to my roof when I try it later and stay put while moving the arm about,Stratts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy.plinker Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Will you work it with the window down ? the sucker will have to be very strong and the light easily moved, good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stratts Posted October 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Never got to try it out coz the handle fouls on the roof bar. And the biggest design flaw is when it's stuck to the roof I can't get the door open to get it!! Plan B is to now make a simple frame that will bolt to the roof rail. Pics to follow!
