It's Finished Continued
That laser pointer fits very well in that pocket.

This is the extreme downward position when
it's against the stop.

|
And this is the extreme upward position against the other stop. With
this much range, I'm sure Angela and Matt will have no problem finding
the right positions.

The base and the four 1/4-20 threaded holes to mount it with. This way
the fixture should stay safe and accurate.

Just a close-up of the timing mark. This was a really fun project and it
was a pleasure working with metal again. I hope the people using the
Escape Room likes it as well.

We Have Some Changes
Here is what the laser pointer looks like with the vinyl
stickers on it. However, Angela didn't like the placement of the bottom
pointer that I machined in it. And after listening to her complaint, I
agree, it should be inline with the laser pointer.
|
|
What I'll need to do is remove this old line and then re-machine a new
one 90 degrees from that one (left arrow). But being real, the old line
would've worked, it just wasn't ideal for their application.
|
|
I took the laser pointer apart and then placed the part
in my lathe. I had to remove .015" from the face and then line was gone.
Once that was done, I changed setups and turned the outside diameter
until the outer line disappeared.
|
|
Next I used my milling machine to machine the new line 90 degrees from
the old one. If you remember, this requires three setups, outside
diameter (below), face and chamfer.
