After making a couple funnels coring with my new McNaughton i decided to make a camera arm for it to adapt my camera for my hollowing system. $25 in parts later this is what i came up with. I think this works better then just using a laser. The mark out for the cutting tip on the transparency paper tells me the direction the cutter is pointing so i can make easier corrections.

Well, this is the first time I have seen this.... Did you make your camera mount bracket? McNaughton does make a laser pointer set up for the coring system, and it does work. Might be a some what simpler set up than this. I did have mine welded to the coring system rather than using the same set screws that hold the blade in place.
