Well, Mr. Rupert, that seems very cool! Can it really be that simple?
I would imagine that getting the blade exactly perpendicular to the laser and general setup is critical for precise measurement.
I’m trying to imagine how a hollow grind would reflect. That doesn’t look like a very focused beam. It would be interesting to see what would happen with a super tight beam.
What if you rotated the light so that the reflection remained vertical as it moved over the edge? Could you read the number of degrees that the light was rotated?
It will be interesting to hear other people’s comments.
Thanks for posting that!
