I was looking for a 120v jigsaw in the $50 range. Local hardware store

Any other ideas? Opinions on the Skil jigsaw?

Thanks!

I second the advise on the Bosch.

One thing that I have always found to be true is that everyone
has their own opinion about every kind of tool and who makes
the best, but almost without exception, Bosch is considered
the king of Jig Saws.

There is a good reason for that.
