I can't be the only one that's stared up at one of these and wished they had one over a workbench/machine...

At $300 used, you might be!

Yes I've always thought they would be great in the shop.

I wonder what a replacement bulb costs?

We converted a modern surgical room light for a medical implant company a few years ago. Would have been fantastic as a bench light, if enormous (I think it was about four feet in diameter).

An old friend of mine had one mounted on a heavy duty iv cart. He had some tool racks/trays for tee handles, and frequently used stuff, and kept the iv hooks to hang a gear oil bottle full of gas upside down with fuel line attached for running motorcycles without a tank, and the other side hung a manometer for setting carbs. He was a bike mechanic and it was a damn near perfect setup for wheeling around a motorcycle lift in a tight shop.

I always wanted to make one too, but it wouldn't really function in my shop and would just be in the way. Closest I got was my mobile vise stand/tool holder, and it's also always in the way lol. Not to mention I no longer work on motorcycles, nor have space in the shop to do so. Still want to make one though .

Anyone have any idea what kind of power supply that dentist light would need?

220, 221, whatever it takes...

I don't think they'd require anything too fancy, but I guess it would depend on the make and model. A quick check of their website shows they can be either 120v, or 240v depending on specific model.
