The best lighting set up is florescent bulbs (4 feet long) about 2 feet or so above the lathe bed. You want them the entire length of the lathe if possible. Light is very important. If you don't have bright lights you will get tired fast and you will make little mistakes that will be noticeable when you do have the rod in daylight.
