Nice to see someone that knows you can plunge cut with a jigsaw. I've been on site with many folks that don't believe it's possible till you show them... Admittedly it's not great for the blades especially if you are in a hurry.

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

It really is a good hack. Send them this way if you get any more non believers 👍

[@zacharyhoffman5456]

First time I'd seen it was on here. But I've met more people who would break every blade attempting anything that requires finess

[@dogbreath6974]

To reduce splintering on ply and other materials you can buy down cutting blades, (not sure what the correct nameis)I've used them on kitchen worktops, ply templates.

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

Thank you, I'll have to look into that👍

It might sound mad but try holding the jig saw upside down and cutting with the blade sticking up. All sawdust goes down away from the cut line and you get a great view and no splintering.

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

That's worth a try, though it'll only work if you're cutting along the edge... Or flip the timber over 👍

[@somika87]

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that plastic instert plate from the very end of the vid there to help keep the blade even straighter for a neat, square cut?

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

No, to do that it would require direct contact with the blade. It wouldn't last 5 seconds.

[@Rando88_]

Is the trigger variable speed or can you only control it with the dial?

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

Hello, yes it does. Please see here: kzbin.info7LubnPmsHfA I made a quick short to demonstrate, hope it helps 👍

[@zacharyhoffman5456]

At 10:10 would your guide rail mount on the opposite side?

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

Hi @zacharyhoffman5456, yes it will

[@vasik2367]

Благодарю! Привет из России.

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

Sorry, I don't understand.

[@miksmif]

all the gear... no idea....

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

@miksmif, please explain, I love learning about tools and better ways to use them. What do you think I missed or did wrong?

[@tokkiebodenstein3577]

Your video is made for the deaf and blind people, because your written words obscure the video. Rather put the words on your face

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

Are you talking about the subtitles?

[@alexisalam7309]

Take the subtitles Off !

[@ChampionsOfTheTrade]

@@alexisalam7309 You can do that yourself, hover over the video and the option is next to the settings. Thanks for watching 👍
