Another awesome video. Great information. Very detailed as all your videos are. Thank you for taking time to make these. I have followed much of your advice in my tool purchases. My cat and me enjoy seeing Tiny in your videos!!!

Awsome video, appreciate you spreading your experience 💪🏽

Thanks for this overview.

Great Video ! My favorite Bosch blade for everything is their 101BF it will cut laminates, Veneers without chipping and on a occasion you can cut mild steel like a Closet pole with them for me that function creates a sacrificial blade as it will booger up the teeth slightly and i wont cut fine Woods with it again Aluminum doesn’t seem to bother the 101 BF ? Another interesting factor on the Bosch Blades is they are costly but never seam to go up in price ? My old company as been using the 102 BF blades and they cost the same as they were 25 years ago from our same supplier ? Weird. We always thought but we used hundreds of them per year like you stated Bosch has always been the best in the Industry , We also used only Bosch Hammer Drills and Bits

Great video. I learned a lot! I Thanks!

Sure miss the old swiss made Porter Cable bayonet blades. They lasted a really long time and the hook was super for blade retention and stability.

Would like to ask what you would recommend to cut a hollow door? I need to install a cat flap for an interior door.

They also make "knife edge" jigsaw blades for cutting really soft material (like cardboard).

What about Starrett dual cut blades cutting upwards and downwards at the same time. Have you worked with these.

Thanks for the videos. I have learned a lot. Is there a specific type of blade designed for cutting acrylic, such as plexiglas? I have tried regular metal cutting blades and it only chips or breaks the material.

I've never tried cutting plexi with a jigsaw, but a cut off disc, either on a dremel or an angle grinder has always worked great for me

You are welcome

I made a jig for cutting 45° aluminium profiles, what blade would you recommend?

Would the downward blade work to prevent chipping on the topside of the wood?

Maximum length available for hard wood... and how much depth of inches we can cut for straight line only for wood or it depends upon the jigsaw... Pls reply

Is there a box of blades that you recommend that would meet most of the needs of a new home woodworker?

What blade would be good to cut 2x4? Thank you in advance Great video

Went through several videos before finding this one and THIS was easily the best. Thank you. Question: How do you choose the correct length blade? Will be for soft lumber and plywood mostly.

most blades are fairly short, most times the issue is you need to cut something thick and have a hard time finding longer blades.

are you scaring flies off the blades with your hand?

Nicely done! If the pull tab breaks off my cat food can, what blade would you suggest?

Hydraulic press, worth the investment.

That double sided spyder will cut a tighter radius than any other blade that i have tried.i finally replaced my 7549 porter cable bayonet saw that got stolen years ago the other day. Still the best jigsaw ever made in my opinion. So if those lenox hook shanks are in your way.........

Yes but my bosch blades wouldn’t stay in my cordless einhell even if both use T blades, the einhell only came with a KWB blade 6235, how would I know what blades to pick, the einhell one must be thicker, I can’t find the exact nr 6235 in my country, there are some same kwb brand but 6023 I think and can only be order from einhell?😢

I'm cutting a wood circle into pizza slices. I'm worried that after cutting the slices, they would not fit the same together when or back into a circle because of the material lost between all the slices. How to avoid this? Use a thinner blade? Is that a thing?

Really nice overview. Thanks. I am still very curious why I can't find any solid Tungsten Carbide blades (instead of attached grit). Does anyone know if the Bosch T367XHM3 carbide teeth blades are made of Tungsten Carbide? Carbide is a mixture of carbide and something else hard, like titanium, tungsten or vanadium. But nobody seems to spell it out, they just say carbide. ARGH!

You assume it's tungsten carbide if they don't mention otherwise the other carbide Alloys like titanium carbide or titanium Cobalt carbide are much more expensive and so companies really make a point to advertise that like Diablo in the saw blades with their Tico carbides

@@CatusMaximus Thank you, your reply was very helpful. I was able to find some carbide teeth blades with upward teeth. For the extra cost, are the TICO Carbide blades more durable than Tungsten Carbide?

Probably a dumb ass question, but gonna ask it anyway. Which blade would work to cut a steel rod? I have a tire guard I need to remove from my exercise cart. It serves no purpose and is in the way of me putting bigger tires on my cart so I need a good blade to get rid of it.

4:47 Using fine teeth on thick metal isn't just slower -- it's also bad for the blades -- right?

What's the difference in "T" number....I see T101 and T118. Also...How do you get a thicker blade ( if there is one), to better-assure the blade doesn't curve sideways, on the bottom of what you're cutting..... and stays straighter with the top of the cutting surface?

Wait for just a second. Those bosch blades look exactly the same as the cmt orange tools blades we sell in our store. Even have the same product codes and graphics design, just another brand/color. 🤔

I made from circular saw plate blade, and save lot of money. Circular saw blade making from HSS steel. That much better than HCS jigsaw bosch blade. Realiable and no money you need.

WOW ! you do like Bosch don't you!!

Need me 5 pece metal blades

Not one for aluminum.

Is this video sponsored by Bosch?

Not a hand actor- kind of unfortunate, as it distracts from the effort.
