[QUOTE="Robcolo, post: 661551, member: 28062"] Jag, you should really "key" off of the front sprocket since it is stationary --the rear sprocket could be out of plane but the laser beam still aimed at & hitting the front. Aligning without the chain also presents a problem. When you later install & tension the chain, the rear sprocket can again go out of plane. Both above problems are easily remedied though - you just need machine a spacer that fits onto the face of both sprockets and is protruding out past the edge of the chain. Permanently mount the laser onto the front sprocket spacer so that the beams edge just grazes it's surface on its path towards the rear sprocket. You then adjust the rear to where the beam just grazes the surface of it's spacer plate, and you're true with the front. Yeah, there will be someone who is color blind or can't judge the width of the beam. We align telescope optics to probably 3 orders of magnitide [1000 times] greater precision than is needed here using basically the same laser method [/QUOTE]
