I will take some pictures tomorrow. Here is a short video using the line laser at night. https://youtu.be/fby7hYJWqto If you do order a laser. Make sure you get the one with the cooling fan. I have several brass body lasers that tend to overheat. I have painted for close to an hour with this one and it has never overheated.

Thanks to our wonderful oppressive Federal Government officials, they decided that importing lasers more than .5mW is not longer legal so the lasers we have are no longer able to be imported. I'm still looking for a way to get them here from China or to find another source. The ones we have are 100mW and use 2 C cell batteries. Good Copper Top batteries typically last about 6 hours. When they were available, we paid approximately $300 for them. As for the narrow line, we are using the Auto Layout on the Graco Line Laser. The inverted marking we use is the inverted marking chalk. We order it from WW Granger.
Thanks Randy! I liked how the marking chalk was so thin and not a wide line.

If you use regular striping paint in the layout, just turn the tip sideways and readjust the trigger
