Thumbs up on Aldi Jigsaw

oops! sorry that's the Lidl Jigsaw. ;-) it being "Parkside" as opposed to Aldi's "Craft" range.

Tried it on a worktop yet?

Nope! but then again I use a router on worktops or a circular and will only use it for cutting out holes in worktops ie sinks ect.

Right tools for the job...can't go wrong. ;-)

I've got a couple of Parkside power tools and I reckon they're better quality than other el cheapos. Not tried the jigsaw, though - I've already got a decent one of those.

I thought I had a reasonably good B & D one - thought... I know 'good' and 'B&D' don't go together, but this cheapy jigsaw from Lidls beats the pants of it. My introduction to good jigsaws was my brother's Festool one and this wee Lidls one reminds of that a bit in terms of it's accuracy and ability to hold a line.

Ouch. Hope usenet doesn't get up there so Andy can see this. He might return and haunt us.

No, he'll be too busy ethereally wafting down the aisles of HeavenlyTools-R-Us choosing the best tile cutter for St Peter's next cloakroom fit-out and insisting that delivery is by winged angel and not Sir Rowland Hill.
