Thread: Cheap or Expensive Jigsaw - does it matter?
Post: RE: Cheap or Expensive Jigsaw - does it matter?
Barrel grip saws are amazing; don't understand why more companies don't offer them. That being said, I'm a huge fan of my cordless Makita. Top quality blades are worth the money IMHO. |

However, if you connected the two slides together with a false apron in front of the real one, you could make them invisible, I think.

Sorry, Gary, I aint got the smarts to post pictures. Never felt like my pictures would interest anyone, so I take very few and do not load them on my computer. Old age has its drawbacks. |
