Jigsaw


Tagliare con seghetto alternativo The jigsaw is the tool most widely used after the drill. It allows you to quickly cut boards and panels up to a thickness of 4-6 cm. It can be equipped with blades of various types, for cutting soft or hard wood, for metals and other materials. Another extremely useful and important tool is the sander that allows you to smooth and polish the wood after cutting and planing. There are different types for harder or more delicate work.


Some hacksaws have the possibility to follow a pendular motion that allows the blade to penetrate much more quickly in the wood, considerably reducing the work time. The pendular motion can be switched off at any time to return to exploit the instrument with its original motion.

To ensure that you make the cut properly, it is necessary to make a clear track with a pencil. While it is very easy to follow a molded or curved shape, it is more difficult to follow a perfectly straight line. To do this it is necessary to use a guide rail to applied to the hacksaw or fix a slat against which to slide the tool.

Modern saws are equipped with adjustable speed that allows you to adjust the motion of the blade to the material to be cut. A filler in the back allows the connection to a vacuum cleaner for the removal of shavings. The sole, on which it rests, can be rotated at various angles to allow a sloping cutting.
