    Plunge cut?! I'd never seen that done before, really cool! I grew up without a dad to show me a lot of this stuff, so you and your videos have to sub in every now and then. Lol. I really appreciate everything you're doing. Looking forward to passing knowledge to my kids, and helping them with their future projects too!

    Never had much luck with clean cuts and a jig saw. When I go around curves, the blade will start to slant and not give me a perpendicular surface. Anyway, I still keep any eye out for these videos, one day they will show me what I've been doing wrong 🤣

    Of all the tools I have, my jigsaw is the one I'm probably the least confident using. These little bits of useful information that I didn't know make me feel a little bit more comfortable. For example, I don't thing I ever would have noticed that some blades cut upwards and some downwards. Thanks, as always Shannon, for another informative video!

    I just picked up a jigsaw at my local HFH Restore so I was thrilled to see you post this video. You give such indepth and helpful information, all in a calming Canadian accent. Let me tell you, it's an improvement upon my dad's style of teaching me how to use new tools.

    My jig saw was the first power tool I ever bought nearly 30 years ago. I still use it as my go-to cutting tool, even if it’s not always the best choice. 😆 I’m just the most familiar with it.

    Great video! I prefer to drill my pilot holes further away from my cut line and work into the cut. Less room for error.

  • @nathanmitchell4839

    I slow the speed setting if I'm cutting aluminum to reduce the blade from melting the aluminum and clogging, but never for wood at least yet, carbide blades are awesome last a lifetime in wood and a long time in composite.

    Starrett makes a blade with up and down in the same blade for plywood, Home Hardware used to carry them I don't know if they still do. They used to cost about $12 a pack

    Shannon, I need to cut sheet masonite(hardboard) for a scenic backdrop on my Grandson's model railroad. What would be a proper jigsaw blade to use while the masonite is supported on 2 x 4s? The cuts will undulate mimicking hills. Thanks in advance. I always appreciate your videos.

    • @HouseImprovements
      @HouseImprovements  2 года назад +2

      I would suggest 12 -14 TPI. 10 TPI would be ok but it may leave a rougher cut edge.

    • @drewpierce2273
      @drewpierce2273 2 года назад

      @HouseImprovements The rough edge is ok on this project if it happens.But, I will try 12 TPI. Thanks.

    Here in England a Sabre saw is another name for a reciprocating saw.

    Once I was using my corded jigsaw and had the trigger lock on. The saw came unplugged. I went back to plug it in, and, you guessed it, the jigsaw took off, scarring the dark hardwood floor. What a blooming idiot I am sometimes.

      In some places jig saws and reciprocating saws are referred to as sabre saws

    I almost never use a jig or saber saw. When I have I've almost always screwed up the blade because what I really needed was a multi tool. Now that there are multi tools I may never use a jig saw again.

  • @aaron74
    @aaron74 2 года назад

    I've always found jig saws are pretty freaky power tools. I try to avoid using them, honestly! They vibrate like mad and just seem like wild little monsters.

    • @HouseImprovements

      You need to apply enough down ward pressure while using to keep them in contact with the material surface and possibly you had a down cut blade which makes things even more jumpy if your not applying enough pressure.
