Installing a Red Dot in the Omtech Polar Laser Cutter

Easily add a red dot site to your Omtech Polar laser cutter with this drop in kit. Available at https://mas-effects.com/omtech-polar-...

UPDATES:
1. I forgot to mention, you can twist the tip of the red dot laser to adjust the beam brightness and focus.
2. Newer units ship with bigger drag chains, so instead of using a zip tie you you can secure it with the screw you removed
3. No need to unscrew the controller and lift it up. Just pull the connectors straight up and they will unplug. Screw in the wires, then plug it back in.
4. Instead of fine-tuning the alignment, you can use the "Laser Offset" setting in Lightburn to compensate
