As a young girl in my 20's I went to a garage sale once and found a jigsaw for $10, new in the box. My mom asked what I needed that for and I told her I didn't know, just curious and it's a good price I suppose. Fast forward 30 years. I still have it, learned how to use it and fell in love with it. I now have more tools than most men. Thanks for sharing your tips.

as a woman who has never even used a drill before because my dad is overprotective and he knows it all, I found your KZread channel amazing!! My dad was so shocked that I own a Jigsaw and showed him how to use it... I feel so powerful now 😌 he also can’t believe I learn on KZread 😂 you got a new subscriber now

Thank you for the wonderful comment! I have 3 daughters that are all empowered to build and fix things themselves, so I'm glad to hear I could contribute to that with you. KZread is a great place to learn!

I searched for hrs trying to get a comprehensive tutorial for my newly aquired jigsaw. I'm grateful to have found your channel. Big Thank You! You the best!

I just bought a jig saw. The same one in your video. This is the best video I have watched . Thank you so much. I'm a newbie. 😂. GOD bless you and your family.

I was thinking about buying a jig saw soon and was watching various YT videos on what to look for and this has to be the best one I’ve seen so far. This guy knows his stuff and covers all the important points. Well done.

Such a clear professional explanation, thank you it’s nice to have a video that treats us like intelligent adult novices 👏👍

Instead of a sacrificial board, try using Blue Painter's tapejust to the right or left of your cut. Same result and no wasted wood.

Excellent how to use jigsaw tips and tricks!

Exactly the information I was looking for as a brand new Dewalt jigsaw owner and first time user. Thank you!

I am so new , and it's so helpful.

As always, great content. Very informative.

Tommy I had the same rocky relationship you described. I was literally afraid to use my 30-year-old underpowered jittery Craftsman. It bounced all over the place, I had no control, the blade would bind when doing curves, and I was afraid it would bend or break, and I'd wind up injuring myself. I really needed to use a jigsaw on a recent project so I sprang for the DeWalt cordless 20V MAX XR (DCS344B) and a quality set of Bosch blades (variety pack). Oh wow -- it's like night and day! Now I look for excuses to use the thing because I love it. I have so much control and feel so confident using it. With the really narrow blade it's almost like taking a scroll saw to your workpiece. Thanks for this super helpful video, and all of your other content is great too. I'm a new subscriber.

Thanks for such vital information. A tool is only efficient if we use the right attachments. Just bought a Dewalt Jigsaw in the Home Depot deal of a lifetime... all the way from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹. My son will ship it to me.

Excellent video. I usually don't like watching videos over 5 minutes. But in this specific 10 minute video every second is precious. I bought a Bosch GST 700 Jigsaw yesterday and i find this video amazingly useful for the beginners. Thanks alot!

Good job reviewing this Dewalt Jig Saw. I do have something to add. I have large hands, I wear XL gloves. This saw is a danger to me because I don't have enough space for my hand. If I pick up the plugged in saw by the handle with my hand it immediately activates the trigger. This is partly because of the weight of the tool and also because the trigger is so long. There is no way for me to avoid the trigger. It is only a matter of time before I get cut. I need to buy a saw that will have more space for my hand. I guess I will try to sell this Dewalt Jigsaw.

Very helpful thanks

I was honestly surprised when I used the Dewalt for the first time. I was thinking, "oh, this is why this tool is a thing" 😂I use it all the time now!

I first encountered reverse Jigsaw blades with a shop fitter. They generally want the fine finish facing them. Used with a very low orbital rake and slowly, it's good for detail and laminate finishes. I confess to preferring a plunging cutting circular Track-Saw system with a quality blade, for sheet materials, with a sacrificial underlay board. But personal preferences vary a lot.

Buying my first jigsaw tomorrow and your video was loaded with great information to get me started. I have had very limited use with one. I am buying a dewalt cordless so I very excited.

Thank you, this video is exactly what I’ve been waiting for. I’m buying my first jigsaw (dewalt )to use for crafting. No prior experience, but proficient with a drill. For now I’ll be making a series of semi circle wood cuts, largest cuts will be approx 36 “x 18”. I don’t have a workshop as such. What kind of work surface do I need...ie fold up preferably, before I start . Can I use workhorses, do I clamp always. Any info would be very useful.

Clamping a piece of wood for a shoe guide has helped me get a straighter line… but your video was very informative, I see why I’m getting ruff cuts, too aggressive 😊

First of all thanking you very much for your teachings , Regarding the types of the blades another type is used for ceramic tiles which does not have a teeth and it is rough diamond coated, round rod as well. Second thing is that we see the cutting from above and very difficult angle to see the running blade unless we lean more .
