In the process of repair or construction work, it is often necessary to cut the material. At the same time, these can be straight cuts, curved cuts, cuts of various configurations, etc. Since the material used is very different, it is necessary to process material from wood, plastic, metal, and various composite materials. As a rule, each material has its own specialized tool, the choice of which depends not only on the material hardness parameters, but also on the sheet size.
Try, for example, to cut a wide sheet of metal with a manual hacksaw - it will not work, and primarily because of the arc base of the tool - it will interfere. This applies not only to this hacksaw, but also to other hand and power tools. But there are some kind of universal tools with which you can process not only different materials, but also different shapes and sizes of parts. One of these tools is a jigsaw.
With it, you can cut a large sheet of material. The size of the workpiece does not matter. You can also cut a hole of the desired size and shape in sheet materials. Saw through a metal or plastic pipe, bar or board. Many models of electric jigsaws have special side stops that allow you to saw off pieces of the selected size. In order not to collect dust in the room where you work, it is possible to connect a vacuum cleaner and much more.
Manual jigsaws are light in weight and can be used both indoors and on the construction site, for example, on the roof or standing on the stairs. The cut can be carried out even in the most uncomfortable position.
Of course, there are stationary jigsaws, information about which is also presented in this section and they have restrictions on the size of the workpiece, but mostly manual jigsaws are of course common. They can be found in any hardware store and the choice is large, you can even get confused. The range of technical parameters of jigsaws and their price range is very wide and it is quite difficult to choose the right tool so as not to overpay for the brand.
Information about the various models of the most popular companies that you can find in building stores is fully presented in this section. A separate article is devoted to each model, in which you can find not only the basic description of the instrument, but also features, advantages and disadvantages, as well as full technical specifications.
In addition, each article is decorated with photographs, which shows the appearance of the instrument and sometimes its technical features. This is very important if you then decide to buy this tool in a store.
The section contains a table in which all models are presented. To go to the description of a specific jigsaw model, just click on the desired photo in the table. Under each photo there is a name of the model.
