One thing I will miss is her supervisor abilities. To make sure IKEA stuff goes together correctly.
So sorry to hear of Anja passing. There are probably very few of us that haven't lost a shop supervisor or two at this stage in life. Their watchful eyes and quality control checks are/were always appreciated, even when in the way of production.
Take care of yourselves.

I got an AliExpress delivery today. I had thought about making these myself but at $3.53 each (3 units included shipping) I couldn't resist and I wasn't in a big hurry.
What for? Well many years ago I bought two LED Tech Pro TP-128 floodlamps for camera and video work. But they were designed to mount onto the hot-shoe of the camera. Not a tripod. I did have one of these but the one side snapped and although it's now glued back with super glue who knows how long it would work. And I had only one.
Now with the new ones I can mount two LED lamps on the two cheap Vivitar tripods bought specifically for them. They run on six 1.5V AA batteries and I have 12 rechargable ones I can use from Misha's stuff. Also they take a 9V adapter so that's also an option.

Here's a better picture of the installed mount onto the tripod base adapter and the shoe slid into the slot on the lamp.
This was my design.

Thanks. Here's the pdf of the drawing. This was all done on April 6th and I really thought I'd end up making them but once I found them on AliExpress I realized I had enough projects on the go. Especially since my knurling, even in aluminum isn't the prettiest.
I've attached an Alibre Package file. I think Alibre ATOM can open that.
