Kitchen lighting

There can be a lot of light, but adequate lighting of the working area is often not enough. In the kitchen there are several places where lighting is needed, bright enough but not dazzling. I bring to the attention of needlewomen the simplest lamp for illuminating the working area from residues.


For the lamp itself were used:
- scrap of plywood;
- aluminum corner;
- LED modules of 0.5 wt;
- power supply for LED modules at 6.0 wt;
- screws;
- a collar on 16 for pipes.

Instruments:
- hacksaw for wood;
- a hacksaw for metal;
- file;
- drill 3 mm;
- a screwdriver.

Lamp manufacturing process

Step one. Preparation of the basics.
From plywood, cut a rectangle. You can specify any size. I had a piece of plywood 120 mm wide and 800 mm long. We also cut the aluminum corner with a length of 800 mm. We process the edge of plywood and the place of cut of the corner with a file.


Second step. Assembly of the lamp.
Carefully lay out the power supply and LED modules and fix them on the attached double-sided tape. Chinese adhesive tape, began to unclip after 5 minutes. But for preliminary marking this was enough. Carefully drill holes in the aluminum corner and fix everything with screws.


Step three. Installation
We drill in the plywood base two through holes and fix the lamp in place with two screws. We connect the lamp to the mains.

That's all, homemade ready, everything looks great - it illuminates, but does not blind. In addition, the lamp fulfilled its aesthetic task with its body - it closed a hole in the wall from where the power cable came out.

I hope that you liked the lamp and found useful thoughts for yourself. Good luck and inspiration to you if you decide to repeat this. Do not forget to share your ideas and homemade things with us!

Korolev,
The lamp itself is located at a height of 160 cm from the floor. It turns out that the main stream of light is directed downward, a reflected stream goes into the eyes - and it is less bright.
If you expand the corner, then this reflected stream will creep in and less light will fall on the edge of the countertop than we would like.
Initially, there was a lamp under a fluorescent lamp. Here she certainly beat in the eyes.
backlight needed, bright enough but not dazzling
It seems necessary to deploy a corner so as not to shine in the eyes.
