Subject: Re: Bosch "Clic" Jig Saw question

Just to add my $.02:  I just bought the barrel grip VS model to replace my
"Crapsman" and Stanley jigsaws.  The Stanley was a great old workhorse. 
However, IMHO, the Bosch is the best jig saw made (I've used others as
well).  Replacing the blade was a snap, the click system working
beautifully.  With Bosch's bimetal blade, the unit cut through 3/4"
veneered mdf like butter.  I never thought using a jigsaw could be such a
pleasure.

Twenty-five years ago, when I was a pup, I longed for a Scintilla jig saw.
 I believe that the Bosch is the Scintilla reincarnated and improved upon.
 (Probably because it is a Scintilla).

Hello WW,
    I've never read this newsgroup because I have been obcessed with
other things, but, I cant' wait to catch-up.  I was just going to ask
some of the questions you have answered.  One of my first questions was
going to be, what is a Scintilla?  I have one and I'm wondering if that
was a good thing.  My Father seems to be very impressed with it but, I
didn't know if it was the thing to have.  It seems that it's not so
bad.  
    Maybe someone would be kind enough to tell me what kind of blade to
use for some fancy humidors?  I haven't tried any curves yet.  Thanks,
and I'm looking forward to replying to anyone who has anything to say
about vvoood.  
                        Thanks,

                        Eddie
