Hello quilting friends,
I have been struggling with vertigo for the past few weeks. Letters swim around when trying to read or use a computer, and have been making me feel nauseous, so I haven't logged onto The Quilt Show until today. I appreciate the good advice. I have ordered the largest light box I could afford - 16.4" x 22.4" from Monoprice. $47.99. It is supposed to be ultra-thin and not get hot.

Thank you, Geneva, Jdeluka, Rosemary, Barb, Marilyn, Sharon and Kathy for your help! You are the bestest!

Judy Austin

I bought this on Amazon several years ago (although it was only about $70 when I originally purchased it). Was very happy with the size. It has a nice bright, adjustable LED light, very flat and light weight - slides right behind my desk when not in use. My on/off switch is a little touchy - tends to brighten/dim the screen rather than turn off the light but unplugging it always works just fine when done!

JudithA OFFLINE Posts: 520 Thank you received: 269	Can anyone recommend a light box that doesn't get very hot, and is large - hopefully at least 15" x 30?"
