In a past post some of you guys said when it came to thicker than 1cm - FORGET it... a jigsaw just wont do it.
OK... so I found out this is indeed true trying to cut chipboard less than 1cm thick - some Ikea furniture.
There MUST be a way surely?
I looked on yourtube... not much there to inpsire.
I did see some get a long metal piece.
So I tried with my spirit level - clamped down. It was kinda OK... it was hard keeping the saw pushed up against the metal.
I thought... how about having 2 sides? i.e. have 2 metal strips clamped down - the exact width of the saw metal bit.
Not ideal for everything - but I was guess OK for a lot of things?
Would this work?
I looked around and couldn't find anything for sale online.
Would be good to hear what solutions there are.
Thanks.
