Doesn't make the grade [Posted on 2008-07-02]
Actually, this tool looks and feels good and has all the features, but that is where it all ended. On the brand new tool that I purchased, the critical components where not aligned; the guide roller and blade shaft were not in line with each other, and this would angle the blade slightly. The blade shaft had rotational canting and could not be locked tight. The shoe alignment scale is near impossible to see. The quick blade changing mechanism is nowhere near foolproof. The cutting performance in any of the 4 settings did not compare to a 10 year old Makita jigsaw. It is just too bad that the engineering quality is not present, because this tool really looks, smells and feels good; but don't be fooled
