The work light I use on my 10ER did not have a good base and frequently got knocked over.
So yesterday I made a base for it that clamps to the way tubes. Just some scrap wood, a T-bolt and a knob.

Where it is positioned it can also turn the other way and be used for my 10ER drill press.

I had been thinking of this for a while now, glad I finally got 'er done. I also added some extra holes to store hex keys.

Please excuse me when you see one of these in images that show my shop area. I just happen to have a light, very similar to yours, that does not get used. It will now.

I glad this can be of use to you, I am certainly inspired by what others here do and share .
This forum is all about the sharing.
One more photo to show the bottom of the lower clamp, (I made a recess for the bolt head with a Forstner bit and glued it in with CA glue)
and to correct an 'omission' in the previous photos.

And here is another lamp on my bandsaw, this one mounts on a short piece of 2x4 screwed to the worktop.

Update, I long since moved this holder to the left end of the way tubes where it didn't get in the way.
Saturday I made a new one to better accommodate all four allen keys that i require. (3/32", 1/8", 5/32", and 3/16") and the hole for the lamp had worn too big.
The lamp has had an upgrade too, I now use LED floodlight bulbs.

I cut the angled notches where it goes over the way-tubes on the 10er, first time making angled cuts with the tilted table, and my miter gauge has the scar to prove it.

I used it in the lower slot this time, just not for the first cut.
And then I needed to dig out the wooden extension for the miter gauge to get support where I needed it, but I prevailed.
