Curves and Creativity
A jigsaw is a handheld power tool used to cut curves, shapes, and detailed designs in wood, metal, or plastic. Its thin blade moves up and down rapidly, allowing for intricate cuts that circular saws cannot achieve.
To use a jigsaw, secure the material and select the correct blade for the material type. Line up the blade with the cut mark and guide the tool slowly along the line. Using a steady hand prevents mistakes or rough edges. Jigsaws are perfect for cutting openings for sinks, creating decorative edges, or crafting custom shapes. They add creativity to renovation projects and are surprisingly easy to control with a bit of practice.
