  • No battery, skin only

  • Has been $69 before. Paid around $130 for mine for a project. Good little tool. Not often discounted.

      That was a different model which is currently $139, so was a fantastic deal at $69.30

      • sorry for a noob question - how do you know that one (https://www.bunnings.com.au/ryobi-one-18v-cordless-jigsaw-to…) is better than the one posted by OP (https://www.bunnings.com.au/ryobi-18v-one-jigsaw-tool-only_p…).

        Thanks

          Its in the description.

          • @boomramada: Couldn't find much details about the one in the OP 😕

            • @Averell: Seriously its in the description, best yet , use bunnings compare tool. It will spell it out for you.

        • The more expenive one tilts sideways so can bevel cut.

          i checked with the Bunnings chat rep

          "The two jigsaws you mentioned, the Ryobi One+ 18V Cordless Jigsaw (model R18JS-0) and the Ryobi 18V ONE+ Jigsaw (model R18JP-0), appear to be very similar at first glance. However, there are a few key differences between them:

          Motor and Cutting Capacity:
          Ryobi One+ 18V Cordless Jigsaw: This model has a more powerful motor with a no-load speed of up to 3,000 RPM and a stroke length of 25mm. This translates to a class-leading cut capacity of more than 100mm in wood and 6.35mm in steel.
          Ryobi 18V ONE+ Jigsaw: This model has a slightly less powerful motor with a no-load speed of up to 2,800 RPM and a stroke length of 22mm. As a result, its cut capacity is slightly lower, at 80mm in wood and 5mm in steel.

          Pendulum Action:
          Ryobi One+ 18V Cordless Jigsaw: This model features a 4-stage pendulum action that can be adjusted to optimize cutting performance for different materials and thicknesses.
          Ryobi 18V ONE+ Jigsaw: This model only has a 3-stage pendulum action."

          • @swampson: Interesting. If that's the case, then the Ryobi website is incorrect, which is where I got the specs from.

            I have to admit I didn't check the orbital settings on either, as it's a function I almost never use.

      • Didn’t even realise they had more than 1 non-brushless jigsaws! Now that you mention it, it looks a lot smaller/cheaper. Not sure of specs though. Ryobi site is half broken and Bunnings site doesn’t give you much info.

        • I had a quick look at the specs before I posted the dealT hey both have the came speed of 0-3000 strokes per minute and 25mm stroke length. Both have orbital function. Other than that I didn't look into it any further.

          • @revheadgl: Does that mean the one OP posted is better? Something more compact but same powerful.

            • +1

              @Averell: No idea which ones is better but they both have very similar spec. The one I posted is a new model, the other has been around for quite a few years.

              You can find some specs in the above link, just click on the particular model, scroll down a bit and click on specifications.

  • There’s a couple of doors in our house that are catching on the carpet when closing. How hard would it be to use something like this to take a bit of the bottom, or would it be easier with a planer?

    • Definitely a planer. Even using a straight edge as a guide and a fine tooth blade a jigsaw will still give you a fairly rough cut, Plus if you push the jigsaw the blade will deflect and wander giving you an uneven cut.

      Do some research on hinge shimming. If it’s not a super tight door frame it’s often possible to shim it which will save you from having to remove the door and also trimming/planning it.

  • I dont remember the last time I used a jigsaw that had a blade that didn't twist. I have this model, and need to hold the whole body of the jigsaw at a 10* degree angle to cut in a straight line.

    Has anyone else noticed this? Is it the bearing guide that needs adjusting?

    • A couple of things to try. Make sure the blade is square to the base using a square and adjust accordingly, don't rely on the markings. Also don't push the jigsaw forward too hard, let the blade do the work.

      Jigsaw blades tend to deflect very easily, especially in thicker material and when you try to push them forward too hard. They really aren't ideal for cutting straight lines in anything thicker than 16-18mm in my experience .Even then, I prefer to use a circular saw for accuracy.

  • Thanks OP, bought one
