Hi,
I’ve recently bought a Makita 4329 jigsaw. Low powered but well reviewed.
I made a simple jigsaw table by mounting it upside down, and this is my experience when cutting either a 17mm pine piece or 17mm oak piece:
1. The included Makita blade severely bends.
2. The Bosch reverse-pitch Clean for Wood blade remains square, however it basically doesn’t really cut because it makes the piece jump all the time.
I read good things about the Bosch blades so I wonder if I should try the “normal pitch” blades which cut on the upstroke, or something else entirely?
I’d appreciate your recommendations. Thank you.
