It certainly does!
Also really cuts into bone when you hold down the trigger whilst grabbing the blade!

Oh wow. I love those. That is definitely one of the best ways of cutting stuff. Pendulums rock!

Just take your time. 5 hours should be sufficient.
Mine had a black box. But I took it back so it is not mine anymore. Can I post on this thread anymore, I know I started it, but I don't own a jigsaw now!? Probably the biggest dilemma of my life! Maybe I should start a new thread for advice on the situation?

Not to distract from the jigsaw but whilst we talking power tools, what you really want is a 36v Hilti cordless skill saw.
And if you looking for a good set for all your on-site carpentry needs try the lithium ion 18v Makita set, the jig saw is the dogs bollocks!

Google shopping usually sorts out a decent price. But forget the hilt unless u have a spare 500+

Bosch cordless drill's rock, I used a 18v volt one while cutting the 65mm in the van floor for my Eber D2
I had it in low gear so to speak and when it gripped it took me round with it! never used a drill with that much torque before

Jumped Ship to a Vito but I hear a 2021 T6 calling, only real difference is the Vito cab is more car like.

I've got a dewalt jigga jig a for work, it does my fucking head in. the tilty plate on the bottom comes undone as much as jordans trousers and the tool they supply to do the bolts up, fits as well as my cock in her chuff.
At home i have a ryobi wan kenobi which is better, and was half the price!
