A jigsaw should be in every home. With it, you can not only cut wood, metal or plastic, but also create real works of art. With a manual jigsaw, you can cut openwork lace on any wooden parts, but the work is long and tedious. In 1946, the first electric jigsaw appeared. A certain Albert Kaufmann, an engineer by training, attached a blade to a sewing machine. Now work is much faster. Modern great-grandchildren of a hybrid of a sewing machine and a saw have gone far ahead in their technical characteristics. But the principle of operation remains the same: the blade is attached only on one side, and because of this it is somewhat rougher. It is now impossible to make such small coils as with a manual jigsaw, but work with such a tool goes much faster, and much less effort is applied. Today we will talk about the Makita jigsaw, or rather about two models of this brand. Professional, and one that is suitable for a home craftsman.
