How to Select the Best Jigsaws for Your Project?

The right jigsaw is crucial for achieving clean, precise, and efficient curved or straight cuts in various materials. Consider these key factors:

Power Source (Corded vs. Cordless):

• Corded: Offers continuous, consistent power for prolonged use without battery limitations, ideal for workshop settings or extensive projects.
• Cordless: Provides unmatched portability and freedom of movement, essential for job sites, intricate work without nearby power, or quick, small tasks. Consider runtime battery voltage (e.g., 18V) and Amp-hours (Ah).

Motor Type (Brushed vs. Brushless):

• Brushed Motors: More affordable, suitable for occasional use.
• Brushless Motors: Offer greater efficiency, power, extended run time per charge, and a longer tool lifespan due to reduced friction and heat. Highly recommended for professional use.

Stroke Length & Strokes Per Minute (SPM):

• Stroke Length: How far the blade moves vertically. Longer strokes (e.g., 1 inch) cut faster.
• SPM: Measures how many strokes the blade makes per minute. Higher SPM means faster cutting.
• Variable Speed Control: Essential. Lower speeds are for metal and delicate materials to prevent overheating/melting, while higher speeds are for wood and faster cuts.

Orbital Action (Pendulum Action):

This feature makes the blade move in an elliptical motion in addition to up and down. It makes the cut more aggressive.

• When to use: Ideal for fast, rough cuts in wood where precision isn't paramount.
• When to avoid: Not suitable for metal, delicate materials, or fine, splinter-free cuts, as it can cause excessive tear-out. Many jigsaws offer multiple orbital settings or the option to turn them off.

Blade Clamp/Shank Type (T-Shank vs. U-Shank):

• T-Shank: The most common and preferred system, allowing for quick, tool-less blade changes and a more secure fit, reducing deflection.
• U-Shank: Less common, often requires an Allen key for blade changes.

Other Crucial Factors:

• Base Plate (Shoe): Look for a sturdy, adjustable base plate (often aluminium or steel) that can bevel for angled cuts (e.g., 0-45 degrees). Tool-less bevel adjustment is a plus.
• Dust Management: A built-in dust blower keeps the cut line clear, and a dust port allows connection to a vacuum system for a cleaner workspace.
• Ergonomics and Balance: A comfortable grip, low vibration, and good balance reduce fatigue, which is especially important for intricate cuts that require sustained concentration.

FAQs

What are jigsaws primarily used for in woodworking?

Jigsaws are versatile power tools known for their ability to make curved cuts, intricate patterns, and cut-outs in various materials. They are commonly used for tasks like cutting shapes in wood, plastic, metal, and laminate, and for making plunge cuts or cuts in tight spaces where other saws can't reach.

Can a jigsaw cut materials other than wood?

Yes, absolutely. With the correct blade, a jigsaw can cut:

• Metal (sheet metal, thin pipes): Use a fine-tooth bi-metal blade at a slower speed.
• Plastic (PVC, acrylic): Use a plastic-specific blade or a fine-tooth wood blade at a moderate speed.
• Ceramic Tile: Use a carbide-grit or diamond-grit blade.

Always match the blade to the material for safety and best results. FEPY offers a wide range of application-specific jigsaw blades.

What is "orbital action" on a jigsaw, and when should I use it?

Orbital action (also called pendulum action) causes the blade to move in a slight elliptical or forward-and-back motion in addition to its vertical up-and-down movement.

Use it for faster, more aggressive cuts in softer materials like wood, especially for rough cutting or demolition.

Avoid it for metal and delicate materials or when an immaculate, splinter-free cut is required, as it can cause excessive tear-out. Many jigsaws have multiple orbital settings or allow you to turn them off.

How do I get a clean, splinter-free cut with a jigsaw?

• Use a fine-tooth, "down-cutting" or "reverse-tooth" blade (teeth pointing downwards).
• Set the orbital action to zero (off).
• Apply masking tape along the cut line to prevent splintering.
• Use slower speeds for finer cuts.
• Ensure the base plate is flat against the workpiece throughout the cut.
• Consider cutting from the backside of the material.

What is the importance of "variable speed control" on a jigsaw?

Variable speed control allows you to adjust the blade's Strokes Per Minute (SPM). This is critical for adapting to different materials and blade types.

• Lower speeds: Ideal for cutting metal, rigid plastics, or delicate cuts to prevent melting, overheating, or damaging the material/blade.
• Higher speeds: Perfect for fast cutting in wood and softer materials.

What are the essential safety precautions when using a jigsaw?

• Wear PPE: Always use safety glasses and hearing protection.
• Secure Workpiece: Clamp the material firmly to prevent movement during the cut.
• Correct Blade: Use the appropriate, sharp blade for the material and ensure it's securely installed.
• Maintain Grip: Use a firm two-handed grip for control.
• Clear Line of Sight: Ensure the cut line is visible and clear of debris. FEPY prioritises safety and encourages adherence to all guidelines.

What's the difference between T-shank and U-shank jigsaw blades?

T-shank blades feature a T-shaped top and are the modern standard, enabling quick, tool-free blade changes in most newer jigsaws. They offer a more secure fit.

U-shank blades have a U-shaped top and are less common, often requiring an Allen key or screwdriver to loosen and tighten the blade clamp. Most jigsaws sold today accept T-shank blades.
