Take a look at the FAQ on jigsaws.


I've got a cheapie (20UKP B&D IIRC) and it's done sterling service over
the last 10 years - cutting floorboards, shelves and such.

I also had a cheapie for many years which did sterling service. Only when
replacing it with a decent one did I realise just how inaccurate it was.


Yes, I have to say I wouldn't use it on anything 'edge critical'.
