How do you guys focus your burners to infinity? I'm relatively new to burners, so could very well be missing a simple trick. I've simply aimed the laser at a distance and focused the spot as small as I can see it get. Is there a better way?

I normally do it that way as well, although if you want, but somewhat unsafe, you could get a mirror, place it at a distance, reflect it back (safely) to a wall, and focus from there.

...if you choose to do this, look out for the aixiz wobble.

I usually just point mine to the top of some trees located about 200 yards away and focus it to a dot. The other thing I do is point into the sky (I live in the middle of no where, and no airports around), you can focus it and see the beam when it gets the tightest.
