Tom, that's good! Keep those gears lubricated. Big Grin

Whatever you use just make sure you have a means of adjusting the position of the beam on your unit. I stuck mine in the mill spindle (fresh out of the box) and spun it by hand, and it traced out a nice little circle on the table. Slaphead

The 4 set screws around the head allowed me to get it centered up when I was finished though. Spin it in the spindle now, and the dot doesn't move a bit. Smile
