This Drill Press Laser Guide/Crosshairs and LED Light is made for the my Mastercraft drill press, but could be adapted.
This snaps/flexes into the lightbulb/worklight cavity opening up above/behind the drill/collet.
The f3d file is fully parameterized, and the gap is set for 68mm right now, but you may have to fight it a bit to change that parameter significantly; worst case just chop and shift.
- Made to fit these 12mm diameter 5V laser line modules (remember to twist and focus the beam with the lens on the end, then you can rotate the part in the print until it lines up with a sample drilled hole on your press. It should stay correct for any height of the press after that).
- Slots for the LED panels are sized for 2 sets of 2 LED panels (exactly what you get from this listing). I haven't noticed these getting too hot yet, but you could probably slap on a heatsink in the angled gap at the back if needed.
I might see about a fan, or a more temp proof mounting solution later.
- I just used a spare 2.5A 5V adapter I had lying around, and one of these socket adapters
That way, the LEDs and laser lines come on when I turn the light switch on the drill press, easy.
Uses two 9mm thread 2mm diameter self-tapping screws for each laser (rotate, and tighten!), and I left 2 small holes for 2 more self-tappers in the main body at 40.5mm apart (by default) in case you want to screw on a little breadboard for all the +-5V rails (see images).
This was partly inspired by this model from sbkirby, but I didn't need the added wiring complexity nor a battery, plus I wanted a cleaner mounting solution (even if it was much more specific for the cavity of my machine).
So long as you have a cavity with a light socket in your drill press, I think it should be reasonably easy to adapt this part to work (especially since everything is parameterized), but unless you have the same drill press as me, expect to need some changes.
I also added a couple strips of double sided tape along the edges, just so it doesn't get bumped, shift in the cavity, and throw the lasers out of alignment easily (whynot).
There is no good way to print this weirdly shaped part without supports, and I would rather spend the plastic on supports than a needlessly bulky part, so it's uploaded in the config I printed it in, and all the little LED rails can just bridge pretty easily so long as you have OK cooling.
Everything is just 5V + or -, easy. Don't use horrifically thick old phone line wires like I did unless you want the wiring to look like a bag of dicks at the end.
Add a dab of CA glue to the threads on the laser lenses once you have them focused and in position. It's much easier to use these to do the final fine-tuning since the focus range is so large.
