A saw guide (14) for controlling the linear path/direction of travel with respect to a reference on an object such as a board being cut, of a rotating saw blade is provided. The guide (14) includes a carriage (18) which carries a sleeve (36) along one longitudinal edge portion in the preferred embodiment. A travel control mechanism controls the direction of travel of the saw from a reference defined on an object to be cut. This mechanism (50) includes a protractor which is rotatably mounted on one end portion of the rod (44). A mechanism for adjusting the rotational position of the protractor with respect to the rod is provided. The protractor can be readily stored above the carriage (18) as desired.
