Such a sexist end to your post! I'm a woman and I've just bought one. :laughing: I love tools! :wink: I've bought it for doing arts and crafts. Can anyone say if this is suitable or do I need a more powerful one? :smile:

just got one. I have a bigger Bosch for DIY. This has much smaller slimmer blades and is handheld. the parkside has a smaller motor and looks suitable for detailed work . wood 12mm plastic 5mm metal 3mm. it looks like it can do very tight turns.
I'm looking to get more spare blades as there are only 2 blades. eBay doesn't seem to turn up anything obvious.

Sit around the table and pretend you like each other doesn't apply to home parties only but Xmas office parties too especially pre-allocated seating arrangements.

Thanks. I want it for cutting acrylic to make bits of jewellery so it should do the trick from what you've said. The Bosch ones look good. I've seen others that look quite bulky. The lidl one is only 75w though. I'm worried that might be a problem. :smile:

The parkside looks ideal for close detailed work on a table top. I think 75w will be ok as the blade is tiny.
researching the blades, I can find nothing. on a us site for a similar Proxon jigsaw there is a suggestion that you use a scroll saw blade and clip the blade to the required length.
it looks like you'd get a couple of cut down blades from a scroll saw blade.
