If you notice when he was using the saw with the blade backwards it was starting to come out. Don’t try that unless you’re wearing safety glasses. Also some saws don’t have a wheel that can be moved. The last board wouldn’t have had the frayed edge if it had a less aggressive tooth blade and slower speed. Jigsaws are more like scroll saws than they are sawzall, they aren’t meant to cut through everything fast as possible.

[@n3bux]

there are different blades for it aswell. downward cutting blades for neat top finish. also copping jigsaw where you use them from under the board. but using a cheap green bosch jigsaw has his limitations

[@jamesritchey4597]

I agree that a finer toothed blade will do the job. But if you are very paranoid about tearout. The tape and close clearance idea on top of it won't hurt. And yes, the first one is super sketchy. There are easier, less dangerous ways to make that cut.

[@Tegelane5]

@@n3bux And for that green Bosch'es money you could get noname jigsaw with pendulum switch- much better than that green Bosch which is without it.

[@n3bux]

[@womble321]

Stupid and dangerous the blade on any tool must never face towards the user.

[@Ricciuto1980]

Don’t do the first trick. Drill two holes in the corners and use the blade in the intended manner so it doesn’t come flying out and hit you. Safety first

[@user-ot4ip1wl2j]

刃を逆につけるのはイレギュラーな方法ですか？

[@Ricciuto1980]

@@user-ot4ip1wl2jit’s not the way the tool is designed to be used and the blade could much more easily come loose. You can see in the video that the blade is at an angle when cutting. It’s not worth taking the risk when there’s a better way to do the same thing using the tool as it’s intended to be used

[@durango8882]

Be extremely careful when using a jigsaw 'backwards', as in the first section. there is a reason for the roller guide. The blades are very brittle so wear good quality safety glasses.

[@joequillun7790]

The safety police have arrived. Thanks Bob. I'm sure the parents of grade schoolers appreciate it.

[@polygonalmasonary]

@@joequillun7790 There are literally thousands of extremely serious DIY accidents needing A&E treatment each year. The vast majority would have been prevented by 'A Visit From The Safety Police'. Power Tools and sharp hand tools are not toys. Some degree of Safety Education and correct methods of use before using them is not only sensible, it could save your life.

The old craftsman saws allowed you to just rotate the blade 90 degrees in any direction by turning a knob on top of the saw.

[@kennynickell9883]

I still have my 50 y/o Craftsman jig saw with rotating head.. I recently replaced the blade shaft bushing that needed replacing 40 years ago..lol..they really don't make Craftsman type tools anymore..

[@roguefate666]

I have an old Craftsman from the 1970s (at least) with this feature. I inherited if from my grandfather who was an avid woodworker. It's an incredibly useful tool.

[@JT_70]

I had one of those old Craftsman’s in the red plastic case for 50+ years. I gave it to my Son-in-Law when I replaced it with a 20v cordless DeWalt.

[@JT_70]

The only thing that was new to me in the video was the extra long blade. I have not seen one of those. It looked more like a blade for a reciprocating saw.

[@olliec1319]

Tip number 6: Use a circular saw instead of a jigsaw for cross cuts.

[@taradactyl5690]

Or a mitre saw/chop saw

[@iprobablywontseeyourreply.7193]

Not if it’s just a small cut like the first one

[@iprobablywontseeyourreply.7193]

But the others I think were just used as an example of tips for other uses too

[@kingarthur1776]

Been a woodworker for 35 years, never once thought about putting the blade in backwards..lmao..this is a great day!!! Thanx

[@Slo-ryde]

Using a blade backwards could damage your saw if you do not have dual supporting saw rolls. You would have to check with the manufacturer to see if it is safe to do!

[@Julie36285]

Very good video, did'nt know the jig saw could be that versatile. Love the visuals and no faff.

[@user-bh4mh4il2t]

Вопрос к первой части видео-а каким образом было уже проделано отверстие? Почему изначально нельзя было его сразу сделать как отмечено? Зачем городить непонятно что на 4,если на 6 более простое решение такой же пр облемы? Ну и распил под 45 градусов тоже подлежит сомнению- если пилка чуть затупится, или захочется быстрее отпилить- явно результат будет плохим. И почему не показан рез по плоскости- насколько он ровным получился?

[@user-rp6mq5pc3f]

Привет всем! Я бы ещё добавил, что при пилении назад полотно не опирается на ролик, и коромысло возвратно-поступательного механизма получает не рассчётные нагрузки.

[@dennybelkin2148]

1- у лезвия нет упора. опасно 2- к отпиленому уголок не приложил... на камеру невидно ровно получилось или нет.... лезвие может "гулять" по сторонам 3- как и во втором варианте, да и телефон как транспортир неоченб 4- вариант так себе, но работает! 5- судя по трясущимся рукам при распиле о ровности не может быть и речи. и опять телефон..... 6- как и третий вариант! неочень но работает!

[@user-kx8wt3be8b]

​@@dennybelkin2148 точно такойже лобзик. Прямой рез по линейке не получается. Уводит в сторону. Нормальной солидной но главное ровной станиной не могли укомплектовать именитый лобзик.

[@diyhard666]

What a wonderful idea to break your saw. If the saw was intended to work this way the producer would have installed a second support roll on the other side of the blade 🤦 You may use a small router instead.

[@nailabc2303]

Плохой метод пилить наоборот - можно легко испортить лобзик. На видео видно, как пилка прогибается без упора и дает нагрузку на основание штока зеленого лобзика Bosch , который уже ИЗНАЧАЛЬНО ИМЕЕТ ЛЮФТ - в отличии от профессионального синего Bosch, в котором люфт отсутствует.

My hack for a Jig Saw ... if you live in snowy regions and grow food in a greenhouse. Screw a few cheap jig saws via their base plates to the structural frames of the greenhouse.. Tape the switches on and wire the jig saws into a common power circuit with a common on/off switch. When the snow builds up on the greenhouse then simply turn on the jig saws and let their vibration bring the snow to the ground.
