Could someone recommend a good T shank Jig Saw blade for cutting curves? I want to use it for making patterns in thin wood. Dewalt or Bosch

Thanks
Johnny

This Festool blade chart will give you both Festool and Bosch equivalents for your application. I have used both the S74/4K and S50/1,4K with good results in 3/4" stock.

Bosch T101AO which is the Festool S50/1.4k these are head and shoulders above the rest and you can usually get the Bosch at the Borgs.

I use T244D's for cutting patterns out of 1/4" hardboard or MDF with good result. They are just what I happen to have and I am sure others of a similar profile would do well. I generally cut right to the line on open or sweeping areas and just a bit "fat" on detail areas and file to the line.
