Laser Guides on Press

[Rocfrog]

We need another on press "laser guide" set up for the new press that is coming and we currently have www.lasertargetingsystems.com and they aren't returning any of our phone calls and last time sent us a bad replacement part so we were looking at www.laseit.net and was wondering if anyone has these or has dealt with the company and what they thought.

I have never seen the laserit but looks pretty good, and the price seems fair , I think the other brand is overpriced personally.
  I guess my only problem with the laserit is if you are running the press by yourself , you would need 2 mounting plates , not a big deal at what there charging.

Save some major coin. Get a few of these:

Base has 3 rare earth magnets built in. It also comes with double sided foam adhesive pad and screws for permanent mounting. Tip rotates to allow for line adjustment.

+1      http://www.laseit.net/  we did not buy the mounting system.. I recommend 2 ea cross hairs and 2 ea dots for light pattern.

Binkspot does, nice ones too! Use ours almost every day!

Binkspot sent me a message and I had him send the owner some info. The owner doesn't want a DIY system he wants something that he can rely-on and call if something goes wrong.

How was/is your experience with this company?

The other thing he really likes about the LaseIt system is that is is AC powered and not battery operated.

Binkspot's system is not a DIY system. It is very versatile and well made.

does blinkspot have a web site for his or a pic and specs of one?

Thanks Alex glad it is working well for you.

Yes I do have a web site but there is nothing on it. I haven't had time to play with it.

Basically it's a four arm laser unit with a mag base. You can choose what style any combination of cross, line or dot. It can be powered 120 vac or with a battery pack with two AA batteries, other power options will be available early next year.

They run $300 including shipping.

There are 22 in the field working now.

I try and build them last but keep the price point reasonable.

If any one is interested in one just pm or email me and I will shoot you info and pictures. When I get home Ill post a few pictures

Our S.Roque came with them, but I almost like Binkspot's better. While the S.Roque ones are a bit more sleek and integrate directly into the press, Binks unit is able to be place anywhere which is REAL nice! I got ours with a magnet base so it can really go anywhere on the press that it needs to. The 4 lasers are also kinda cool, if I am printing I usually point one up and over my shoulder, catch anyone in the eyes creeping up! Only worked once, but I thought it was funny as hell!

Here is The first one built. The only change to the units is the arms are all black now.
