ABSTRACT:
A laser alignment tool positioning system, includes a magnetically susceptible laser platform having a first mounting surface and an opposing second surface; a mounting post extending from the laser platform; a target on the mounting surface marking the mounting post centerpoint, and a plurality of mounting post adaptors. The laser platform may include magnets proximal to the mounting post base. A semi-rigid offset portion with threaded ends is provided, with an adaptor having a threaded portion to couple to the threaded ends and a slip fitting to couple to the mounting post adaptor. The mounting post may include an interior threaded portion to couple to the offset portion threaded ends. The target includes concentric circles indicating selected pipe sizes, with the concentric circles and mounting post adaptors including color coding corresponding to the selected pipe sizes. The positioning system may include a level indicator mounted to the laser platform.
