Laser Edge Finder

<< < (4/4)

ksor:
Now I got my laser pointer  :clap:, BUT ...

the "point" is way to big !

I thought a "laser diode" emited a very small bean - it doesn't ... a linse can be adjusted to focus the beam, but unfortunately the spot/beam can NOT be so narrow it can be used as edge finder - I think .  :bang:

Yorkshireman:
I have made a similar tool in the past.
Do this: Stick some Alu Foil across the muzzle and make a tiny, tiny hole for the beam.
It does require some experiments, but it works! I did get a sharp pointed laser dot.

-->Yorkshireman:  :bugeye: OK - I'll give it a try and hope I succeed - thanks !
