My new Metabo sander. Notice the cable tie? I haven't used it yet, and I've knocked the dust box off at least half a dozen times - it slides on with no catch or clip. Perfect if you never need it any other than horizontal.
My nearly new jigsaw. Notice the cable tie? Without the tie the sole plate drifts out of square within seven or eight inches of starting a cut. I'm debating sending it back as it is beginning to drift even when tied, although it's a design fault not a manufacturing one so I'd only get another the same if it were exchanged. It would appear to work on a cam, so I'll probably end up taking it to bits ... which I'm loath to as it has a three year guarantee.
