Yep, that's what I was thinking of.

Don't waste your time with the instructables link, you spend half your life
aligning the laser. Just buy the kit in the 2nd link, or go to
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.5928 and get a couple of line
lasers for $4 each.

Oh, and tool snobs sneer when you say your power tool has a laser. Real
tool snobs sneer at electricity.
