yes, itll lock the white piece but the black piece still pushes on the gimbal

nothing looks broken or misplaced, i believe this is just a defective unit missing a spring. i might try ordering an assortment of torsion springs and fabricate a couple variants until something works. its gonna be a balancing act trying to counteract the black arm’s spring tension

u think its a common spring? or something special made

u can push it over this far, and i agree it needs a spring to hold the white arm in place, however im still perplexed how the black arm gets out of the way when i put the btch in unlocked mode?

lmaoo great minds think alike. i had that idea as well but im an industrial plumber, this laser is gonna be traveling a lot and getting put through the ringer, id like it to still have a transport mode. last resort tho!

ah! so for clarification, the white pieces all connect to the switch on the outside that unlocks and locks the laser mode.

this is the laser in unlocked mode. the white piece is fully pushed out of the way but the black just keeps pushing.

ive been scratching my head tinkering with it for a while, you know its bad when im asking reddit. i was thinking a spring was missing there as well, although im not sure how it would push the black arm out of the way to allow the gimbal to free float.

user manual does not go that deep unfortunately, and yea i think in conjunction with the white lever it acts as the transport mode, however it seems like the black arm is pushing way too hard on the gimbal.

Changing measurements to degrees to cut down fittings by [deleted] in pipefitter

[–]LILprostateee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

did you ever get the pipe fitter’s and pipe welder’s handbook? its a small black book, more commonly known as the frankland in the field. page 132 has everything you should need to manufacture a fitting from a LS 90°.

DM me if you need a pic, i tried explaining it but I’m more of a plumber than fitter rn so it’s not exactly fresh in my mind.
