Laser distance to work surface

I lost my distance block to set the distance from laser end to work surface, Any info to set laser end to topof work surface. Thanks

Different lasers have different focal lengths and nozzle lengths. Do a ramp test to determine the size you need, then cut yourself a block of the right size. :smiling_face:

Exhibit 1:

The focal distance for my module is 33mm (without air assist nozzle). I know this from the documentation that came with it.

I cut the handle of a wooden spoon slightly oversize then sanded to correct length, the handle is a cheap ‘throwaway’ screwdriver that came with a kit or some apparatus.

I’d love to say that I carefully drilled a hole and glued the handle in place, but I didn’t. I simply used it like an awl and twisted it into the wood by hand until it was stuck.
