What drives the common woodworker?

I guess we're not so different from trolls, really. We dislike and
point out that, which we hate about ourselves.

obww - I have a 40+ year old B&D jigsaw with an all-aluminum case.
It's very lightweight, and suitable for lightweight work, such as
cutting plywood and up to 1/2" softwoods. Very little vibration. I
also have a B&D professional VS orbital jigsaw that is much heavier
(and much newer, 1990). It was pricey, at around $130 (in 1990
dollars). It has always been a useful, dependable tool. Some of my
other recent (5-10 years ago) B&D tools didn't fair as well.
