The jig saw concept first came about when an engineer attached a saw blade to his wife's sewing machine. Jig saws are used to cut out intricate patterns in the material you are shaping. If you need a curved edge or a circular cut out in the center of your material, a jig saw is the tool to do it. A jig saw blade moves in a rapid up and down motion to cut the material you are working with. The important thing to remember is that your body is softer than the material you are cutting and the blade will cut through you faster than the material. Be observant of where the blade is at all times and avoid cutting yourself. Bosch power tools were the first toolmakers to offer a jig saw to consumers. Bosch power tools are designed to aid in the workplace by being built to withstand the punishment professionals give their tools in the rush to finish work on time. Most are built to withstand a drop of ten feet and still work reliably afterwards. After vibration was noticed as detrimental to the physical health of workers, Bosch power tools set out to reduce vibration from their equipment. Bosch power tools has reduced the vibration by 60% over the years. Along with the low vibration, Bosch power tools are designed for low sound emissions as well. The fan motors are pitched to be less irritating and pointed away from the user as well so little noise directly impacts the worker. Handles and weight distribution are designed to make the tools comfortable to grip and use. Buttons and switches are conveniently placed to make the operation of Bosch power tools easier to do one handed. Bosch power tools even have left handed equipment available. Bosch power tools are ergonomically friendly, tough enough to withstand abusive treatment and quick to make adjustments to while working. This allows more production to be accomplished in a professional setting. This also makes them some of the most expensive available. There is an old saying that you get what you pay for. With Bosch power tools, this is definitely true.
