A Jigsaw is one of the most popular saws used for cutting today, here are some tips, advice options and choice of blades.

Jigsaw tips

one. In fragile material, drill a 10mm

• A jigsaw can be used like a scroll saw or band saw if you have a fine enough blade. As with a scroll saw, use a drill to make a hole in the wood where you want to cut your design using a jigsaw. You might not be able to cut as intricate work as with a scroll saw but on larger cuts a jigsaw will do the job equally. Keep in mind that you are limited to space and size with both a scroll and band saw.

• To cut smooth curves in wood, begin by pressing the saw shoe firmly on the workpiece with the blade away from the edge. Start the motor, guide the blade along the outside of the cutting line (for finer sanding later) and move from curves to inside corners. Always move the saw forward at a pace that allows the blade to cut without deflecting and does not make the motor labour. Prevent the saw blade from binding on tight curves by using relief cuts to remove waste.

• Jigsaws are ideal for cutting curves and complex shapes in wood. They

• For quick cutting, use a coarser blade.

But note that the coarser the blade, the more sanding it needs later. Most wood-cutting blades for jigsaws are designed so the teeth cut on the upstroke. For fine work demanding less chipping in wood veneers, for example choose a ‘downstroke-cutting’ blade – an alternative is to place masking tape on the cutting line path before drawing on the pattern line.

• Cutting countertops, make precise, no-chip cuts in laminate by drilling

a 1cm starter hole in the countertop for the blade. Use a special laminate blade that cuts only on the downstroke, and follow the cutting line drawn on masking tape. Avoid marring the countertop by taping the bottom of the saw shoe. A jigsaw is perfectly suited for making the curved or short diagonal cuts at the corners of countertops and for the final long cut parallel to the backsplash.

• Jigsaws are not good for making fast, long, straight cuts. Use a circular saw instead. Jigsaws work best for cutting softwood that is no more than 38mm thick and hardwood up to 20mm thick.

Jigsaw blades tend to bend when cutting curves in thicker boards, leaving a bevelled edge rather than a square

surfaces. This waterproofing system includes a free polyester membrane, which is used to bridge and stop leaks on parapets, flashings, roofs joints and laps, wall and chimney cappings, as well as, seal nail heads, putting the ‘All’ in AllSeal.

Plascon AllSeal is specially formulated with a 5-year quality guarantee, and after extensive testing shows excellent water resistance, weather and UV resistance, and high flexibility so that it allows for expansion and contraction in the harsh south African climate without cracking or flaking. This means that your exterior surfaces will be protected for longer, saving you time and money. The secret is in the thixotropic gel structure, which means that the waterproofing coating applies easily and allows for a thicker film build, making it impervious to the elements.

Plascon AllSeal also has a water-based formulation making it the responsible choice for the environment.

Plascon AllSeal will soon be available in a low sheen finish of eight of the most popular roofing colours in Africa, in a convenient 5L pack size, but can be used with any Plascon roof or wall coating.

It took courage, back in 1932, to start a new business while an impoverished world was in the middle of the most severe economic depression ever. Yet, the Durban founders of African Bitumen Emulsions did just that. Today, 90 years later, their brave new enterprise, now called a.b.e. Construction Chemicals is very much alive and a dynamic market leader in sub-Saharan Africa.

AFRICA a.b.e. has become a popular brand name throughout Africa and now has representation in Angola, Botswana, Kenya, Namibia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Ghana, Zambia, Mauritius, Reunion Island and Madagascar.

TARGET MARKET Over the years, a.b.e. has grown and diversified to become a major supplier of specialised construction products to the building, civil engineering and building maintenance industries. With a diverse market including large construction companies and small house builders, specifiers, developers, facility managers, co-ops and engineers, a.b.e manufactures, imports and distributes a range of specialised products.

Products are supplied through branches as well as builders’ merchants and hardware stores. Now part of the Saint-Gobain global group, a.b.e. has factories in Boksburg and Durban, and a network of branches and distributors throughout South Africa, subSaharan Africa, and the Indian Ocean Islands.
