So many years ago companies like craftsman, hyco here in Australia called these a jigsaw or pattern saw , mine has a rigid cast top arm and the blade is tensioned at the blade end via a spring and screw. The top arm usually moves up and down on a scroll saw. I have seen these called a scroll saw but in old catalogues a jig saw, probably a preference, the reason I said frame was to explain the rigid top arm, I hope this helps, regards Arthur.
Thank you my friend
My pleasure
Perfect timing, i was just thinking about what to do for brackets with the two shelves i am going to put up. Thanks
Glad to help
You called the tool you were using a frame jigsaw, but I haven't heard of that. However, it looked like a scroll saw to me. Are they similar?

@@acsmakeandrepair3252 Ah, thanks for the explanation. In any event, the brackets look nice, and I may try one on my scroll saw.
@@mheermance no worries
scares me to be that close the blade. I'll stick to my CNC machine
Actually probably not as close as it looks, thanks for your concern.
