Jigsaw BASICS for Beginners.

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

The Essential Beginners Guide to Using a Jigsaw! The Jigsaw for a lot of newcomers to DIY and Woodworking is most likely one of the first tools to be purchased. They just appear to be a lot safer than the noisier and more aggressive circular saw which is great for gaining confidence when using power tools.

Hope you enjoyed a little British humor. You probably need to take a nap now straight away after all that excitement watching a man with his jig saw. Remember to always keep your jigsaw handy Jane and tune in for the next thrilling episode, "How to insert a square peg in round hole!" A must see for all Australians 18 or older..........

    If you mark the center of your circle, you can put a screw into it. Tie a piece of twine to it and the other end to your jigsaw. Obviously, you have to adjust the length to get your blade along the edge of your circle but it is pretty helpful in keeping you from straying too far off course. I do this all the time for subwoofer cutouts on enclosures.

    If I had to choose only 2 power tools for the rest of my life it would be a drill or maybe impact driver and a circular saw. One to cut wood and one to screw em together ! I was making push sticks and had a hell of a time with my jigsaw trying to make curved cuts and the blade wasnt cutting straight down but now I see I shouldve used my thin scroll blades. Was having a lot of binding issues and non square cuts. I got a dad joke. Whats the difference between a hippo and a zippo? One weighs a lot and the other one is... A little lighter..

    Very nice tutorial, knackers! Pro tip from the construction yard: If you don't have an inverted blade but you need your cut to be 100% clean, hold your machine upside down in a vice, switch and lock it on, and use the base plate as a sawing table. This way, your blade will pull into your visible surface. This is not safe, not good for the machine. But it'll get the job done.

    I saw this tip on another channel. If you don't have the immediate want or capabilities to cut the pilot hole prior to cutting the circle as shown in the video it's completely possible to plunge cut with a jigsaw. Simply start the saw with the shoe up on the front edge and the blade above the wood and then slowly plunge the blade into the surface keeping a firm grip, while keeping the front of the shoe steady against the wood. I tried it and it works great.

    Hello, new subscriber here. Just want to say thank you for this informational tutorial. I am a newbie to using power tools, and doing "DIY" woodworking projects. Started out using cardboard for my personal projects but, have developed a curiosity for woodworking. Been wondering how a jigsaw works and now I know because, of this video. I made my first (cable spool) foot ottoman a few weeks ago. My daughter was so impressed she has requested a coffee table ottoman and, 2 smaller sitting ottomans for her home. My children have always been my greatest incouragers when it comes to learning new things. With the right supplies I have confidence I will fulfill her wishes. However, I need to get a jigsaw...so your tips about blades helped to encourage me to move forward with my decisions. 😏😊💝

    On my jigsaw you have to press in the side button to be able to press the trigger and it has no locking option. This is presumably intended as an additional safety feature in that if the operator loses their grip on the tool for any reason it will power down. Unlike my deadly angle grinder where although it is really hard to turn on by accident once on the switch locks into place. That thing is scarier than the circular saw.

    Great tips as ever. I bought a jigsaw about five years ago. I can’t believe how I did without one. My circular saw gets the occasional outing but the jigsaw gets used on most woodworking jobs. When I get roped into jobs for the family at their house, a jigsaw and the wheelie bin is a good combination...

Needless to say I hated it and made a bit of a mess and the saw was a bit noisy and jumpy.

    I'd also say with all saws, buy good blades. You can use a cheaper saw, but, a cheap blade will bring out the cussing because they get dull so fast, which puts more strain on the tool and makes the cut rougher. Also faster saws tend to work a bit better.
