Jigsaw

About Jigsaw

A jigsaw cuts curves, shapes and straight lines in wood, plywood, laminate, plastic and thin metal sheet. Corded jigsaws suit long work at a fixed bench or site with power, and cordless models give freedom on sites and in fitting work. If you already own batteries of one platform, a bare tool of the same voltage and brand saves cost. Top-handle jigsaws are common, while body-grip (barrel) models give closer control for scroll cuts.

Check cutting depth in wood and steel, stroke rate, and whether the tool has variable speed and orbital (pendulum) action. Orbital action speeds up rough cuts in wood, and should be off for metal and fine cuts. A tilting base lets you cut bevels, and a tool-free blade clamp saves time. Make sure the blade shank type matches your jigsaw, most often T-shank. Choose blades for the material: coarse teeth for fast wood cuts, fine teeth for laminate and metal. Clamp the work, keep the cord clear of the blade, and wear eye protection.
