Ordered the one from Peachtree. Should arrive sometime next week so I will be playing with this earlier then I first thought. If I get the time and it warms up a bit I will get started on the shopsmith adapter idea and have that ready when it arrives.

Yep, I think mounting it to the 'front' of the headstock will work.
Or the way tubes.

Well that was a lot quicker then they said. The big brown truck pulled up and dropped off a box. The only thing I had on order was the laser drilling guide so it is here. I did open the box and made sure it works, well as in powers up and the beams are there.
Since I wasn't expecting it until next week I have done nothing to get ready for it. No time for any shop stuff today but I think I can get a couple of hours tomorrow. If I have the materials in house then that should be enough for me to put my idea together.
I will start a new thread once I have some thing to post.

Well the UPS driver just handed me my box with my DP laser, he scanned it just b4 handing it to me. 2 minutes later I tracked it, said Delivered, amazing!! Now I just hope my LED umbrella light on the ER does not drain out the laser.

Yep, Gonna have to order one for myself.
Those little brown trucks are getting faster and faster.
A package which I received just before Christmas, I was home when the package arrived. The guy scanned the package, handed it to me and my phone(in my pocket)alerted me to a new email. It was the delivery confirmation... Man that stuff is getting fast....

If only the USPS had similar computer response times.
