Hi guys, I use a jigsaw and I have some problems with the correct saw.
I have been used a saw for cut metal to cut my fibreglass fin panel, this one is the best, or there's some better than???
When I do some curve, my saw loose the cut and warm up.

I use a carbide grit blade on my jigsaw
Hi Soulfins-
A jig saw is great, you could even use a scroll saw if you have one available. Carbide blades will make the cutting process smoother for sure.
Best of luck.

bosch 3 1/4" diamond grit jig saw blade
$12. 07 /EA-Each
the best blade eventually goes away,dead puppy.
when it is done it is done .The last round I got another
round by taping some scrapwood to the sabre saw foot
about the thickness of the dulled section of the blade
making it possible to use remaining sharp teeth
on blade.
The thickness of 30 layers of the fin panel
was about 3/8 ‘’ the blade is about 3’’
the dulled spot on the blade
is really polished smooth and very dull
cut maybe four or five 9’’ fins
8 to go on a 20x24 panel,
shims 3/8’’ on bottom of foot
go on another five cut out.
when the blade is done …throw it away
the new teeth are much easier
on the motor of the saw.
carbide is bitchin’pay the money,
but when the blade is done
buy another one don’t pretend
you can cut just one more

three packs of metal cutting blades are cheap enough
have enough blades in your kit to replace
the blade in the saw in the middle of the job.
when your saw gets really hot
the blade could be really dull stop and look.
oh yeah dont burn your fingers touching a hot blade.
you know it’s really hot
when you hear your finger tips go:
‘SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS’
Actually a practical, and useful hint, to extend blade life. Thank you.
