You can also get laser pens that project lines, so you see a vertical line on the OB and a line on the cloth to the pocket. I think they're great training aids for learning to see OB contact points. I used them in lessons long ago.Helping beginners and players that have problem shots.

Google search: line laser pointerIn Bold.
Where is this type available. I'd like to have one.
I did a Google search and could not find PENS that offered vertical and horizontal lines. Plenty of commercial lasers out there that offer V and H lines but way too big.
Thanks

A line laser lets you project a line past the OB to the pocket so you can aim precisely even when cheating the pocket or shooting combos. And it works well sitting on the rail, keeping the playing surface clear.

----------------Cool. I did this almost exactly as described about a year ago. Here's my contraption. I cut a deli container down and sliced out two semicircles for the laser pointer. A rubber band holds the button in. I only used it a couple of times, but it's pretty cool.View attachment 495055
----------------Thanks, I think I have found one that will work.

10mw or 50mw cross. The nice thing about the cross is not only can you see the center horizontal center line on the OB you can also see the vertical quarter line on the OB.

Which one did you buy?
If it's being used by you on a pool table, I want to buy the same thing.
This should be fun.
Thank you.

-------------In the pictures above, the dot in the middle of the cross is where the cue ball must contact the object ball using whatever aiming method you are using to make that happen.
This is a good example of the equal/opposite method of aiming.
The table needs more than new rails. The table has been treated as a training aid. Since acquiring the table in 1993 there has never been a pool game played on it. Just practice drills
