This is interesting for anyone whose saw doesn`t have a laser guide and wants one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Durable-Br...a=0&pg=2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100012.m1985 It takes the place of the outer flange washer and comes on automatically when the blade starts spinning. Admittedly that doesn`t allow you to line up something before you start the saw but it will show where you`re going to cut so it might be more of a go-no go type device.

I love my Milwaukee 12 inch SCMS but it didn`t come with a laser guide (It does have a very good work light instead.) Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of these?

That was interesting Bob. Do you know a source for that light?

Rick I think it`s just meant to shine straight down along the edge of the blade.

Thanks Bob. I'm not sure that will fit on my Milwaukee as it doesn't have much clearance between the blade guard and the top guard casting but even if it doesn't I can use it in a couple of other places. If it won't fit then the zero clearance fence is the next best choice I think.

Dan I only posted that one because it's where I found it while I was looking at saw blades. I hadn't seen one at the big orange here. Maybe they'd let you put one on a saw and try it I got my Milwaukee 12" at the big orange and it doesn't have one.
