This was so informative. As a girlie interested in starting DIY, I’ve watched tons of videos, but I notice that the women DIYers seem to give way more detailed instructions.

Nice video for those unfamiliar with the tool. One thing to note when installing a blade into a jigsaw is to be sure the blade also aligns with the blade guide roller! Also, that blade can get really hot from the friction of cutting so caution, and gloves, are advised if the blade needs to be changed out or removed from the tool after completing a cut.

Sincerely appreciate this tutorial, I'm so impressed with your knowledge and love the way you teach us. Thank you so much 🤗

GURL! I've had my Ryobi jig saw for months and you just taught me about so many more uses! Thank you

I didn't know I needed one of these...until now. Mind blown with the bevel cuts! Thank you for the tutorial.

I just purchased a Rhoni Brishless jigsaw last week and can’t wait to use it. This video came at the right time.🙂

Thank you! Really clear explanation & help ease the anxiety & fear of using & handling a Jigsaw. Really appreciate it.

Thank you Anika! I’ve been looking into and wondering about jig saws since last Summer! With your very descriptive video, I felt comfortable to purchase one. Please keep the videos coming! You are such an inspiration! Take good care!

I liked your technical analysis of the blade, as it gives more to the approach of what has been chosen to be cut.

I’m just now getting into trying to actually learn about woodworking and DIY, as opposed to just trial and error, so I’ve watched a lot of different KZreadrs, but I really enjoy your tutorial videos the best! They are very thorough and teach you everything you need to know about the topic at hand while being concise at the same time; a great combination! It’s apparent that you are extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what you’re teaching and that really comes through in your videos 😀 Thank you for sharing!!

Better late than never! Now you know right? Keep going! You got this

I am a first-time user (had used a saw decades ago!) I am also in my 60s, but I have the NEED and a strong desire to make things I want. TY TY TY TY For being very thorough, and explaining things in detail in such a way I can easily understand. I "Thought" I was fully prepared (Safety goggles, mask) but I need to go and get clamps (I knew this, but didn't) for today I am okay with the blade it came with, but I also will need in the future various types of blades. At the moment it's a shelf I am making, and redoing a bookcase. But later on, I want to do some fancier things. You have encouraged me further. SAFETY FIRST And above all! I was born with 10 fingers and plan on keeping them for the rest of my life.
