    Which Jigsaw?

    I doubt i'll be cutting anything much thicker than 40mm worktop. Like you say majority of the thicker stuff getting done by the circular or my Bosch sliding mitre saw.

    Which Jigsaw?

    I made a boo boo and ordered the GST150BCE by mistake. I won't be sending it back, the company I bought it from has the GST135BCE in 110v only.

    Which Jigsaw?

    DW321 Jigsaw Help Needed

    I know they are junk but this one seems especially poor, was hoping there was something that could improve it. Festool out of my price league, any particular model Bosch worth keeping an eye out for should a bargain appear in 'For Sale' or on Fleabay?

    DW321 Jigsaw Help Needed

    Firstly if this post is in the wrong section then I apologise. I have a problem with my jigsaw, it is a Dewalt DW321-GB Type 2. Whenever I try to cut anything like a straight line the thing veers off line massively. I currently have Bosch T-Shank blade in it, tried it with orbital on and off...
