I have the need to look at the straightness of some runner edges, as well as squaring up a set of old "L" runner alignment jigs. I tried using a quick-and-dirty jig with a cheap laser pointer I had lying around the house, and it didn't work very well. Before I go to the effort of building a nice mount for one or the other device (laser or scope), I was wondering what people have found the best type of each is (and hopefully the approx. cost).
For example, in a scope I assume there is a range of powers and diameters that people have found to be useful. I have no idea what parameters are used to specify laser desirability.
