Re your respected comment....I guess this confirms what they say???

"Anyway the laser is accurate at the
top of the stroke... it changes as the saw is brought down"

The problem I have with lasers is that you can't see a pencil line when the
laser shines on it. I often make fine adjustments to my work piece, Often
I'll cut to one side of the line or the other. Sometimes I want to cut down
the center of the line. I'm talking 1/32 or smaller adjustments. I hate not
being able to see the line when cutting.
I always lift the guard out of the way so I can view my line and the blade.
I just can't see the use for a laser.
For people who never lift the guard I guess it's the only way to line up the
cut.
