Laser-Transfer-Marker Some of you maker buddies need to transfer marks from inside the shell to the outside of the shell (e.g.middle of the ding, middle of the dimples, axis/border-intersections…) A lot of makers use a peening tool to make a little dent. I was thinking for a while how to avoid those dents with a peening tool on the outside of the shell. From a functional perspective these dents are useless and from a visual aspect…. I don’t like them either. I came up with a magnet solution and later on with a caliper solution. The magnets where a lot of fiddling around with the little metal balls and the calliper had some minimal torsion and felt somehow still not perfect. So - here’s the DIY LASER solution. IMHO it’s the best of the 3 methods. Fast, easy and precise. It’s made of a body of aluminum to avoid any torsion. It’s still light weight. The fixed metal bar is in opposite to the fixed laser. The laser can be adjusted with 3 screws. To ease targeting the pin of the metal bar I made a sight disc with a M4 screw thread which clearly shows the cross hairs. Just remove it before usage.
