Bosch 1590 for $120 (Amazon.com reconditioned)
They also sell on e-bay as cpotools-bosch.
And it's a great saw.
Ha! This saw (brand new) was on sale for $85 at Blain's Farm & Fleet in the fall. But I skipped it, preferring my barrel grip saw.
Same model??
Yes, same model.
Have a Bosch, had a chance to try out a Festool on a treated lumber arbor project. The Festool didn't start acting like a jigsaw until I replaced the blade with a Progressor and then the fancy dust collection thru the base just got all plugged up with the wet treated lumber sawdust. I guess the Festool is a just city folk and doesn't like it out here in the outdoors where we have to cut arches in arbors. I'll take my Bosch any time.
