My local Lowes had the Bosch 1587 jigsaw marked down to $65 tonight. Other
Lowes may be doing the same thing, so if you're thinking about purchasing a
jigsaw don't wait.

Oooooo, and I'm in the market.
My B&D is great as cutting jigsaw puzzles, weather you're trying to or
not.

I have that model, and it's a fine little machine. That's a smokin' good deal.

If they've got stock--none of the Lowes near me is showing stock.

That is a good price the cheapest I have seen it is around $99. But that is
the "combination lock" model. A great saw but the blade change feature is
much more desirable on the later models. Yeah you don't change blades
often... till you use one that changing a blade takes a second or two. Good
find!

Every time I need to change a blade on my 1587 I have to find the manual
first.

But that is an excellent price, it is a helluva machine, and you _can_
eventually learn how to change the blade ... I think?

I about fell out of my chair laughing when I read that. It honestly
took me a few years of using ONLY that jigsaw to get where I remember
"the combination". And it has the instructions printed on the
machine!

But for the longest time, if I didn't have my readers with me, I was
up against it. I twisted, turned, counted, fussed and cussed getting
those damn blades in the thing.

Excellent tool, though.

One of the absolutely worst jig saws I read about and had first hand
experience changing blades on was the DeWalts from 8~10 years ago. You
thought the blade was in there tight till the wood pinched the blade and won
the tug of war. It was hell pulling the blade out of the kerf with out the
saw attached to it.
