Re: Laser Kerf Line for slider saw?

FWIW, just got an email from CPO listing Bosch refurbished cross hair red laser for $49. i looked up the power spec and it is <1.5mW. i looked up a dewalt and it listed similar power.

so i am pretty sure all of these pen type lasers on ebay with listed power of 50mW, 100mW or 200mW is incorrect specification. maybe it is the power supply power as opposed to laser power consumption.

Brett,

Thanks for the boom pic. I could not connect text to the previous pic. BTW, you found the same orientation best as I did. Locating laser on the saw guard made it faint 10ft away and really bright near blade. I ended up mounting midway along the length of slider on the wall. I do not see any power rating of laser on amazon, does the unit list wattage? From my experience, keep it within reach so it is easy to align and all should be fine.

David Davies - the Frame Press is a Soukup FP32.21 from Soukup America, contact through Greg Godbout at Rangate for inquiries - I received it earlier this year and I cant express the extent of"better" it has made for me since transitioning to a one man operation in the Covid era.

Imran - this photo should better illustrate the issue of needing a boom arm. I just rigged up a metal stud for concept and locating. Final fit would ideally be a tripod mount that can telescope and lock adjustments, but I bet I just find an old piece of scrap square tube or unistrut once I find it sitting in some dark corner of the shop lol.

Brett,

thanks for sharing details. i am not following this part, ¡°Changes to be made: add a metal boom from overhead guard to make a fixed mount¡±

did you not use the magnetic bracket that came with the laser? it is hard to tell from pic if you made a custom bracket.
