I just got a new 1591 barrel grip and it is also a fantastic tool to use.
It's one like Norm uses.

What a joy! Fired up a new Bosch 1590 EVS this weekend. Gift from the
LOML. My goodness, gracious, does it cut clean! I used it on a couple
of minor cuts that I'd normally just grab the handsaw for. That damn
thing crosscuts a twobyfer straighter, faster and cleaner than I can
with the HS. Probably means I need a new HS - 35 year old Craftsman
Krome Edge that's never seen a file.

After using a truly anicient Skil jig saw for many years (as seldom as
possible as its cuts were slow and nasty), the Bosch was an epiphany.
All the advice I read on it in here was spot-on (not that unusual if
you pick your posters). Thanks.

I KNOW it's keeper. It's going to live right by my tailess Makita
drill, on the bench, ready to hand.

Hmm, almost wish it was tailess.



ditto the barrel grip, ditto the fantastic.
