Episode Details

Most jigsaw buyers shop by amps and strokes per minute — the two numbers that predict the least about whether a saw is any good. This episode works through what actually separates a saw that tracks a line from one that wanders: guide roller rigidity, stroke length, blade clamp design, cutline visibility, and the trigger-plus-dial speed setup that lets you ease off mid-cut. Along the way: the honest case for corded (runtime without fade, lower price, no battery lock-in), the one place cordless clearly wins, why T-shank blades are a rare interoperability win in power tools, and the real-world test results that show a $75 saw can outperform a $175 one if the fundamentals are right.
