What can I use to detect a laser that is being pointed at a point? It can't be visual. The laser is going to be about 12 feet max from the point to be aligned. I'm moving a large tank as I try to aligne and thought if I put something on the closest end to laser with a small hole this would insure the tank was aligned when the laser was pointed at the other end.
I am trying to align the seam of 8ft diameter tanks to be welded. they need to be inline with the travel of the welding unit that is on a movable track. I don'tr have the laser yet as I know nothing about this except I am supposed to accomplish this somehow. Where do I start? Ken
