What would be the best scrolling jigsaw for under 100. I keep seeing
the Skil var speed with laser for around fifty with fairly good
reviews, what do you all think?

"Best jigsaw under 100" is like "most chaste prostitute". There may
be such a thing but the distinction is of at best academic interest.

Bosch 1587AVSK Top-Handle Jig Saw Kit
$89.00 Amazon

My skill worm drive circular saw is great but a Skill 1/2 drill was a piece
of crap and burned out after a very short time....I wouldn't trust any
consumer grade Skill product.

The Bosch 1587(older model) or the 1590(newer model) hands down has the best
reputation.....Rod

Bosch

I have the one with the handle but if I were to do it again I would
seriously consider the barrel grip.

How thick a piece of wood will the laser cut? ;)

I think it's to preheat the grain before you cut it..

Who cares?

Get a Bosch barrel body (i.e. one made in the Scintilla factory), or
maybe the good Makita. No doubt the Fein / Festool fans have their
favourites too. Anything less than this just isn't playing in the same
league though. A jigsaw is one hand power tool where buying one of the
good ones just works far better than you'd believe, until you'd tried
it. You don't have to pay Festool money, but you do have to get into
the Bosch £130 region.
