Before the chaos ensues, the article was written prior to the postponement in the Carvex launch.

Good catch though, Chris.

Party pooper.  [big grin]

My guess is that when the Carvex is finally coming to North America there will be announcements from the mountain tops and you won't read about it first in a magazine.  [thumbs up]

It is just a jigsaw for cripes sakes.

Is that your unbiased response for when you receive your pre-release test model?

I have not laid my hands on a Carvex, nor seen one in person.

Like I said, it is just a jigsaw.  Some times, some people get way too worked up over a power tool.

Everyone has his / her passions.  Yes it is only a tool, but this is a forum about tools.  And the Carvex does have features that we haven't seen before on similar tools.

Just my 2 cents worth.

good gracious.

good gracious.

Oh go out to the workshop and hug your ancient ironware.  [tongue]

I agree - like the ability to use a jigsaw on the rail - how many times would you even want to?  Jigsaw's make crappy circular saws, though they are handy to get a bit closer...

Having added that - Dewalt makes a very deep truss-enforced jigsaw blade that allows you to do cuts probably close to 1/2" out from the front of the shoe - could be very handy at times.

Folks round here must be using their jigsaws for higher precision uses than what I use mine for.  Too bad us Americans are too wimpy to be able to handle a strobe-ed blade, does look like a nice system.  Hopefully it doesn't have the tedious manual blade thickness adjusting screws; the Bosch self adjust mechanism saves a bunch of time over doing it with an allen wrench.

Warner,    you mean I shouldn't postpone any major events because this jigsaw might come out this year?

Hear hear!

The stroboscopic light blew my mind.  But PLEASE don't make one for machinery.

 

[adubeau]

Uh you guys use a jigsaws?

I use mine once a year.. if that...  But I am a hobbyist and not in cinstruction or anything...
