We claim: 1. A surface mountable assembly for a light line generating device comprising: a first assembly including a first side and a second side, wherein the first side is configured to engage a work surface; a second assembly coupled to the second side of the first assembly; and a laser diode assembly coupled to the second assembly, wherein the second assembly is selectively translatable along the first assembly. 2. The surface mountable assembly of claim 1, wherein the second assembly moves along a plane oriented generally parallel to the work surface. 3. The surface mountable assembly of claim 1, wherein the second assembly is further configured to move in a direction generally transverse to the work surface. 4. The surface mountable assembly of claim 1, wherein the second assembly slidingly engages the first assembly. 5. The surface mountable assembly of claim 1, wherein: the first assembly comprises at least one rack; and the second assembly comprises a pinion that engages the rack. 6. The surface mountable assembly of claim 5, wherein: the pinion on the second assembly is disposed on a shaft in communication with a controller operable to selectively engage the pinion and move the second assembly with respect to the first assembly. 7. The surface mountable assembly of claim 1, wherein the first assembly further comprises mounting holes operable to receive a fastener. 8. The surface mountable assembly of claim 1, wherein the first assembly comprises a protective assembly and the second assembly comprises a shoe assembly. 9. The surface mountable assembly of claim 8, wherein: the protective assembly comprises a rail surrounding the shoe assembly; and the shoe assembly comprises a plate including tabs received by a groove formed in the rail. 10. The surface mountable assembly of claim 1 further including: a rotatable knob configured to selectively engage movement of the second assembly with respect to the first assembly; a locking knob operable to selectively fix the first assembly with respect to the second assembly. 11. The surface mountable device of claim 1, wherein the laser diode assembly is rotatably coupled to the second assembly to enable the selective rotation of the laser diode assembly with respect to the work surface. 12. The surface mountable assembly of claim 1, wherein: the first assembly comprises at least one rack; and the second assembly comprises a pinion that engages the rack. 13. The surface mountable assembly of claim 12, wherein: the pinion on the second assembly is disposed on a shaft in communication with a controller operable to selectively engage the pinion and move the second assembly with respect to the first assembly. 14. A surface mountable assembly for a light line generating device comprising: a first assembly including a first side and a second side, wherein the first side engages a work surface; a second assembly coupled to the second side of the first assembly; and a laser diode assembly including a laser diode housing, wherein: the second assembly is selectively translatable along the first assembly along a first direction to reposition the laser diode housing with respect to the work surface; the laser diode housing is selectively rotatable along a second direction to adjust the location of the laser diode housing with respect to the work surface. 15. The surface mountable assembly of claim 14, wherein the second assembly is further configured to move in a direction generally transverse to the work surface. 16. The surface mountable assembly of claim 14, wherein the first assembly further comprises mounting holes operable to receive a fastener. 17. The surface mountable assembly of claim 14, wherein the first assembly comprises a protective assembly and the second assembly comprises a shoe assembly.
