Screwfix Ferm Jigsaw
I'm thinking of purchasing the Ferm jigsaw that screwfix sell for
£17.99.Has anyone bought one and are they any good.I've seen some that cheap in b&q and Wickes and they look pretty poor. I've already bought the Ferm 24 Volt cordless drill from Screwfix and it's seems to be a very good purchace. Thanks in advance Cal -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

Screwfix Ferm Jigsaw
I've got one but it doesn't come close to my Bosch. It doesn't cut half as
nicely and the blade holder works loose and is fiddly to use. I'd spend the bit extra, I think you can pick the basic Bosch up for about £30 now.

Get a Bosch. -- Grunff |
