I am trying to cut some toekicks out of 5/8" melamine with a jigsaw. I tried the cutting guide that came with it and I keep the guide tight and saw foot nice and flat but the cut will not follow my straight line made with a speed square. I also tried clamping the speed square to the work and using it as a guide for the saw without the guide, keeping the saw's foot tight to the square and still the blade wanders off course. It is a brand new craftman top of the line and new bosch blades meant for "fine cutting in wood, plywood and plastics". Thanks for any tips.
