    A:  I don’t work for ridgid so I can’t say for certain but they never have before so I’m going to guess no.  There are aftermarket universal edge guides that may work or you can make your own from plywood, that’s what I did.

      A:  Don't know if Ridgid will offer one (but they should since it has a place for it) but I was able to use one from an old DeWalt cordless saw that the Ridgid replaced. It fit perfectly so if you can find one that fits another saw, it 'might' fit the Ridgid.

          A:  I don’t believe Ridgid offers a laser attachment. You may find an aftermarket option but none that I know of!

                  A:  One to two hours depending on what you are cutting. The type and size of the wood you are cutting will determine how long the battery will last.

                                        A:  No, not exactly… all circular saws (that I’ve ever seen) have the front of the blade spin “up” so that as you move forward and cut the material, it is kind of also pulling the saw down.

                                                A:  Facing the blade, yes. It forces the sawdust to go out toward the rear of the saw.
