Extendable Scissor Lamp
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ส.ค. 2019
- No workshop is complete without a shop light. I built a scissor mechanism so it can extend and swivel over the workbench; I even added some braided lamp cord for that industrial look. It's amazing what you can build with some scrap wood!
Mounting the lamp required a unique solution so that the lamp could tuck away when not needed, but also peek around the corner to be able to extend the entire span of the workbench. Some black iron pipe adds to the aesthetic and allows for a full range of motion.
The main inspiration can be found here:

However I modified the design so that the mechanism parts weren't permanently glued in place. Gluing the parts together means that if something gets tight and needs adjustment, there aren't many options for troubleshooting. Using hardware is more expensive, but this thing is completely adjustable and comes apart completely if need be.
There is enough room on the end to add more gadgets if needed, I'm considering a magnifying glass which would be useful.

I wish TH-cam would allow TH-camrs to set their ads to silent... Had this turned up to listen to the soothing workshop sounds and OH MAN
As intrusive as ads are, the whole point of ads is to get your attention, if even just for a second. Google is an ad company. It would be highly counter-productive for them to add a function that automatically mutes their sponsors ads.
Of course you can just block the ads withAdBlock or Ghostly or other adblockers
People say you shouldnt do this because it eats into the YTers potential profits, but actually it just eats into their sponsors profits, it hurts the big man not the little man, and since its the big man thats annoying me, and the little man thats pleasing me, im totally fine with that
youtube should have any Ads. not a one.
remember those days
just click and watch without any bullshit
That was fantastic! Thanks for showing that to us!
wow, great video, the extending/contracting action looks so smooth
Scissor extensions are so cool. They have a compact feeling that's hard to replicate with other sliding mechanisms.
Very cool! Quite clever! Can never have enough lighting where you need it in the shop! Thanks for taking the time & effort to video it and share it with us!
Great videography along with an awesome project! Thanks!
Love that your intro is just your work place in silence
beautiful range of motion, well thought out end to end
Impossibly cool, stunningly beautiful and insanely overbuilt. God bless you.
The Ol’ outdoor driveway planer...I bet your neighbors LOVE you!
Looks great. Functional and fairly heavy duty.
Your video is a pleasure to watch and the work piece is gorgeous.
Fantastic. Exceptionally well made. very professional
Nice ! Wonderful workmanship!
I loved how you played "Dire Dire Docks" on it at the end.
Wrong video.
Very well executed design!
Great video also
What an absolutely gorgeous video - great product design, nice finishing, and what superb videography!
Very nice desing, industrial style, congratulations and thanks to share it.
Excellent project. Looks amazing
Beautiful design and beautiful photografy
Dude, you do fantastic work!
You and Frank H. Are two peas in the over engineering pod and I LOVE you both. Amazing work.
Bright idea. At the end, with the demo of the lamp and the extending arm, I was waiting for a bouncing beach ball - and a mini lamp ;-)
Likely the most well executed light of this type I've seen on you tube. Well done sir!
It’s a cool retro style lamp. Awesome
Very nice video. Build explained by the well edited story without a "YO! TH-camRS" or loud clashing music....thank you!
very pleasing to the eye, enjoyed very much
That's the coolest thing I've ever seen.
What a nice job man!! Congratulations and thanks for sharing 👏👏👏
Truly a work of art
Very nice, wonderful woodwork.
There are not many projects I see that impress me as much as this one does. Something that is needed in the shop and very unique. I'm sure you will eventually add a bracket for your camera as well. Just a thought. Great job.
Great project! I might have to do this and adapt it for my podcasting microphone
Una pieza espectacular! La edición del vídeo es igualmente impresionante, sin decir nada lo dices todo! Enhorabuena!!!
I love you scissor setup. I probably will build one but will mount it with cord loops at the bottom to prevent the cord from interfering with the scissors. Your videos are awesome keep up the great work.
Now I know how it is done ... I just need all the machinery. As a joke, I watched the whole video because something that seemed simple to do, was more complicated for it to work as it should. Ingenious, with details and made with wood and water pipes. I also always enjoy observing each one's ability in his trade. Good job.
This looks really nice, well made. nice idea👍🏼👍🏼
And now I’ve watched, very cool!
Beautiful job! Beautiful machines! You looks like a doctor... a cientist! Congratulations! You are the best! Thanks from south of Brasil.
I watched this video because I was interested in the scissor lamp build. It’s a very clever and wonderful project. But what is even better is the craftsmanship and over-the-top-quality of the video production. Fantastic video!
Man this is much more satisfying and better than cringy satisfying videos, Measured Workshop doesn't have any excessive music, talking and their captions describe what they're doing. Keep it up :D
Thanks for sharing that, good idea!
Nicely done -- all around.
Great project!
Excellent project 👍
Fantastic work. Congratulations
great work deserves millions of likes
Nicely done!
Brilliant work and I like your style
In making the video, it’s silent but informative 👍
You did a great job
I made one of these from two old expanding coat racks someone threw out and some odds and ends laying around the shop. I still use it over my lathe. To be honest though, mine might be cheaper (although just as functional) yours is much more aesthetically pleasing
Súper job! Congratulations 👏👏👏
Nicely done!!
Nice work, beautiful lamp, but in the joint system on the tube I would put the locking clamp on a free ring in the middle of the joints, in this way you can fix the height without blocking the right-left movement
Beautiful and useful 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Pretty amazing.
I could have used this today while staining a valet box. Great video.
beautiful!
Es perfecto, precioso, practico etc... que trabajo tan bien hecho, gracias
I had one of those lamps over my bed as a kid, made in East Germany.
Best Germany
Well done. Great invented.
Congratulatios beautiful design. I'm Mauricio from São Paulo, Brasil.

So much satisfying for ASMR lol
outstanding !!!
A very good job!
Very satisfying video
No BS, no nonsense, and no annoying music
I wish i could have given you more than one "like", but i did subscribe too, hope your channel grows and grows

Que trabalho fantástico amigo. Parabéns e abraços do Brasil
Genio total!!
Measured Quality from the Measured Workshop!
Excellent
Awesome work 👌🔥🔥
excelente amigo gracias por compartir tu jenial trabajo.
Good Job ! Looks very very nice ! ...too nice for installing in a workshop, its a lamp for the living room, beneath the big arm chair, to read a book ....... :-)....
Would love to adapt this to my magnification mirror.
That's definitely what I was thinking too! I have to figure out a way to rig it on there, but there's more than enough room to scab it on there I think.
extraordinario felicitaciones
Saludos, muy buen trabajo, felicidades
Belissimo trabalho parabens.
Que criatividade. Munto bom . (Brasil, Bauru - SP)
Still can't find out what`s going out on the mind of those 200 guys that gave a dislike on this MASTERPIECE...
magnífico trabalho....parabéns....
😍amazing one!!
well done man, that workshop is so pretty that I wouldn´t do anything so I don´t scratch it XD...
Loved it.... excellent
Не заменимая вещь в мастерской. С меня лайк. 👍
Благодарствие за видео! Просто крутяк)))
Excelente trabajo. me suscribo a tu canal. Saludos desde Buenos Aires, argentina.
amazing!!!
Muy bonita y muy buena terminación, lo único que me gustaría con el cables en espiral tipo resorte, felicitaciones.
I appreciate your work its very interesting.
Neat-looking lighting. A handle to move it around would have been an improvement. The wiring looks messy (should be more concealed if possible). Having said that, the wall mount pipe bracket is very cool. Classic industrial look. Thanks for sharing.
that came out great, but you’re going to have to modify it just a little because you can’t turn that assembly without loosing that hand nut.
put that metal collar and hand nut and locate it underneath so the base can swivel on the pipe but it’s testing on the metal collar so it can swivel left and right.
I kinda need this for my fume extractor and double as light mounting 🤣
