And it's not a '93 Mazda 4x4. It's a Bosch jigsaw.
It cuts through wood like butter, well compared to the old jigsaw that Deb got through Airmiles. I think I had it on too fast though, it was hard to follow the line, it was pulling away, instead of having to be pushed. Made in Switzerland, what a difference to made in China. Now the fence should be finished by the weekend. Hopefully some good progress on the Playhouse, er I mean landing pad too.

Hooo Baby! Come to papa! That is a nice looking tool. It makes my Black & Decker garage sale jig saw look like a pile of crap with a saw blade stuck in it.
We got one just like that to do a curved fence gate- the Bosch got the best reviews in the web. So stange,Grex, we had a 1960's B and D from an old lady's estate sale, it was all metal and got superhot and we'd have to wait for it to cool off every 5 minutes. The 'roughing it' tools are more interesting to talk about in origin and hardship factor, but the 'big boy' tools are so efficient, especially after suffering for so long.
it's a lot heavier than the airmiles cheapy we had. The blade doesn't wander at all, and it has so much power. It's the most industial feeling tool that I own. I finished the fence last night.
