Learn how to use a jigsaw with this in-depth 30-min. tutorial. If you've ever wanted to get started with power tools, I highly recommend getting started with a jigsaw. They're the least intimidating, are versatile because they can cut wood, plastic, and metal, and they can be affordable. In this in-depth tutorial, I walk you through WHY you need a jigsaw, HOW to get started, the parts of the jigsaw, and HOW to cut wood and metal. I also share with you my favorite jigsaw blades for cutting laminate, wood, etc. for getting the best results.

This shows 5 years ago, but it still relevant to me at least. I live in nyc tiny apt and i love woodworking. I just started and i have the exact same saw. I have limited tools, but there is other stuff i want to learn to make for myself and maybe one day for others......Thank You for this!!!!

Very well done video. I’ve been a carpenter for 35 years and felt the video was very well done, very informative. It left me with almost nothing to add, and was well worth the time. Anyone with a jigsaw should watch this video.

@beverlyannosterberg-dolan9200 5 лет назад

Excellent, she anticipates what one would want to know and is very clear and articulate. Women, small carpentry is fun, and you don't always have someone else around to cut a board, also most lumber yards and hardware stores don't want to be cutting boards for you.

@Daisy.florina 2 года назад

This video is the best in You Tube , your instructions is so comprehensive, and details information we need for beginners like my self. I have been upset because I did not want to use Angle Grinder so I had no idea what tool there is I thought the only tool is a hand saw but is manual is so hard on my hand and difficult to work with. I have metal ,plastic, and wood to cut and I am a female and small build so I don't have much strength to use dangerous tools like angle grinder , I think tools have been made for men . Some are heavy and bulky. I have been upset because I thought there is no a tool like the Jigsaw could do the jobs DYI . I am so grateful for your video and your wonderful demonstration , you certainly have covered everything there is to know for a beginner . Thank you so much, and I am so grateful for your video. I am now feel the Jig saw tool is exactly what I need I feel confident to use it because of your video , I have seen other video and they are below basic. Yours is the very best video . The other best thing about it , I am a female and finding a video that is being demonstrated by another female makes it just fabulous and make such a difference in gaining confidence to use it . Your are wonderful , and you appear you genuinely care for the viewers and being engage with us to ensure we understand how to use a Jig Saw and with confidence .

Can u do more of these videos explaining things about different power tools? Maybe like a power tool series 101 😁 im a female who is starting to get into diy woodworking projects and im having a very hard time learning how to use different power tools (mostly basic) and even finding good female tutorials explaining them like this one did!! Very informative and easy to follow, thank u!

Awwww, yes, I have been wanting to do more of these, Shannon! I will do this. :)

@yolandegeyer2749 Год назад

This may be 2 years late, but YES! So many tool videos start explaining things on the tool with the assumption that I already know basics. It makes it so difficult to follow.

@bobjackson4953 7 лет назад

You are a gifted teacher and I'm very impressed. I've had that Ryobi jigsaw for years and never paid any attention to all the features. Thank you for sharing your knowledge & I'm looking forward to being a subscriber. ( I just bought the Ryobi 10 inch table saw and have been staring at it for the past few weeks. It's a wee bit intimidating. If you ever feel like putting together a tutorial on the table saw that would be great!)

After watching your video I now understand what I was doing incorrectly and how to fix it. Thank you thank you thank you!

@oneeyedphotographer 2 года назад

I watched David Stanton earlier today demonstrating how to cut a curve. His workpiece was a large piece of 42mm hardwood. He turned pendulum (orbital) off. He made the point that the front hand is for holding the jigsaw down, not for steering it. He made a special point of explaining why he doesn't use dust collection. The rear hand steers the saw, and applies gentle pressure to move it. He showed the cut close up, it was straight and smooth. He's also made a workbench that you can place on the dining table. I won't scratch the table, and it won't move. It has a lot of dog holes, based on the Festool multifunction table (MFT).

You have NO IDEA how much I love your comment, Genie!!! You have put into words exactly the people that I want to reach because I have been there and know what it's like to want to get started with tools but not having any clue whatsoever what I needed to do. I want to make it easy for people to get started and to know about all those little nuances that you can never figure out, such as setting up the workstation. Thank you for the kind words!! Looking forward to doing more of these videos for you!

Seriously, thank you for doing this video and all the others as well. I love that you do these things and share it with others. It's really inspiring. I've never thought of asking my husband for power tools for my birthday but I will. He's not a handy guy which is fine but I'd like to think I can make stuff on my own if need be because I am a lil bit handy and very creative so, yeah. You are a great influence on your kiddos as well as to the entire U-Tube-verse.

Thank you so very much for finally making it clear in all the little details that other youtubers overlook, how to understand and operate power tools as a newbie.

Thank you for this! I love that you were not afraid to be super basic because basic is exactly what I needed as a first-time jigsaw user! Mine is not nearly so fancy, doesn't do angle cuts and has a plug, which I kept having to worry about; Ryobi should be happy because I think you just sold me on that one.

About to install floors that will require some weirdly shaped cuts!

My first power saw 50+ years ago was an inexpensive corded jigsaw because what I wanted to cut in plywood had both straight cuts and a curve. I would c-clamp a 2x4 stud on plywood to act as a fence guide for straight cut. It was a long time before I bothered to get a circular saw.

Ryobi tip - Always check online sales at Home Depot, I have seen better pricing numerous times online while standing at the Ryobi tool display! They will honor the online sales pricing at the store, or it is usually a 2 day free shipping thing if they do not have at the store. By the way I got this tip from a HD tool dept guy. I have saved a lot of money doing this, sometimes two tools for 60% of what they cost separately and it includes the charger and batteries! Thanks for the video, everyone needs a jigsaw, one thing I would add is this jigsaw allows for platen adjustment, the base will adjust up and down, not just on an angle, for blade wear or on thin wood wood cuts, which I think may have helped on the circle cut you did but wasn't really necessary but it does help with control..also remember the 3Ds when using this = Depth,Drill on Discard, meaning set the depth, and drill the access on the Discard piece if finished product is for display... can't tell you how many times I have seen beginners drill on the piece they wanted to display.
