Sandra: Thanks for the info.. I finally found a
bulb (or my wife did LOL) for that quartz, and it was NOT good at all. I
am saving for one of the LED's from Lines End, Chuck

Glenn: Thanks.. Funny you should bring
that up about a 100 watt vs a 60 watts that is just what I have now.. a
"reading" light, that has all sorts of "adjustments" with levers and
springs, and I did that just last night.. changed over from a 60
watt to a 100 watt bulb, and it was a lot better (or brighter anyway).I
haven't tied under it yet, but it looks like it will be a lot better to use,
but I did see what you mean about making things look bigger...I was
wondering about the quartz, cause My wife says we'll have to order a bulb
for that thing online, and a bulb (she says) is about 10 bucks, so I wanted
to see if anybody was using a quartz before buying and ordering one...It
burned out long before I started tying so I cannot remember what type light
it put out.....Thanks again, Chuck

Hi Chuck, I know nothing about a quartz light. What I
like to use is a regular desk lamp ,black in color,to reduce
glare, with a 100 watt bulb. Using a regular house light
bulbs ,it will be large enough to cover the back and front of
the fly without leaving any shadows. A 100 watt bulb makes a fly look
larger and you can see more details compared to using a 40 to 60 watt
bulb.Changing the wattage around and you will see what I mean. When I
buy a new lamp, usually under twenty dollars, try to fine one
with porcelain fittings as these can take more heat. It nice when you can
turn all the lights off in the room and just use the desk lamp. You
shouldn't have any other light shinning in your eyes while tying ,but if
you need another light in the room,keep them behind you. Again I hate
small bulbs lamps as there are to many problem with shadows.....Glenn
