Hey hey peoples!

House is coming on quite quickly now! Still no bathroom/kitchen properly but it's all going to be there by friday this week! AMAZING!

I've decided, however, it's time to buy myself a much needed tool! I need... a jigsaw!

Any recommendations people? I want something pretty decent that will last!

Fankoo muchly nice peoples :)

No idea tbh, I gues just stick with a recognised name. They probably come with loads of cool features these so look out for one with a laser guide or something ;D

Cut some curves (like a Bosch)
Into wood (like a Bosch)
Can be used (like a Bosch)
In artistic ways (like a Bosch)

Unsupported (like a Bosch)
Lower end (like a Bosch)
Watch out Pheebs (like a Bosch)
Don't lose your fingers (like a Bosch)

My Bosch drill has been chugging away for years without any problems :)

I will only recommend Makita these days, or a top end Dewalt. Avoid the cheaper Dewalt ones because they aren't very good.

This is the ultimate badboy:

I've got the 18V Li-Ion battery version and it's stunning to use.

This one will probably also do you:

This is the equivalent Dewalt to the more expensive Makita:

Same thing from Bosch:

Any of those will see you through to the day you die :)
