my £50 old rotary laser level for leveling my alignment platform was having issues spinning, like not enough power (even with new batteries) or bearing was sticking abit.
didn't have time during the day to fix it so continued aligning my wheels with the previously levelled platforms.

so obviously I took it apart to try lube the bearings and then this damn plastic pulley broke

so had to machine a pulley out of some spare bits

but it was too tall

so tried to pry it back off and the damn cheapo shaft broke

damnit so I'll have to take it all apart and remachine a whole new shaft/pulley.
I had to break apart the shaft to remove the bearing and omg this is where they cut costs alot in material choice.
they literally made it out of what I can best describe as shortbread biscuits lol can almost snap the pieces with fingers

guess I'll be rebuilding my laser level after the trackday.
