Which is better to use saws for cutting jig on the machine?
From choosing the right saw blade depends on not only the quality of cut, but also the time that will be spent on the production of goods. Therefore, the purchase of high-quality saw blades need to think in advance. When I bought a jig saw and started his first job, a little disappointed, as the saw blades, which were included, were very poor quality and to cut them was quite difficult. In this article I will tell you about the pin and bezshtiftovyh saw blades, as well as you will learn what it is worth buying saws for cutting on the jig machine.
What sawing better pin or bezshtiftovye?
Many jigsaws have the ability to use the machine as a pin and bezshtiftovye saw blades, so at the beginning, let's find out which of them is better. I think everyone understands that the pin - this saw blades that have studs on top and bottom, respectively, and bezshtiftovye not have these pins.
Pin saws are more suited to the pre-rectilinear sawing of blanks, because the width of these blades from 2 mm (at least I have not seen less). The pin has a length of about 5 mm and is therefore not possible to bayonet saws to saw small patterns, because have to drill a big hole, so you can stick a nail file. Therefore, for cutting jig on the machine better use nail files bezshtiftovye. For bezshtiftovyh saws recommend installing a comfortable fit, which I wrote in the article "Modernization (rework) Jigsaw machine".
Bezshtiftovye saw blades have a small width (0.6 to 1.35 mm, depending on the web rooms), which makes it easy to cut filigree patterns. Price bezshtiftovye saws are much lower than on the pin and are suitable even for normal hand jigsaw.
And now I'll tell you about the quality of the German bar that is used by many masters and where you can buy them.
Bezshtiftovye saw blades German manufacturer NIQUA.
One of the best saw blades are a German manufacturer of sawing NIQUA. They have a very good quality. After them remains fairly clean cut and work them a pleasure. In the West, there are several companies that sell these saws under its own brand and are the direct dealers NIQUA: Flying Dutchman and Hegner.
In their range, if I'm not mistaken, 9 varieties of saw blades. I will not enumerate all, but tell only those that are most like me personally. The most popular saws Flying Dutchman They are: 2 Way Cut, Penguin Silver, Penguin Silver Reverse, Scroll Reverse and Ultra Reverse. The cost of one pack (12 pieces) is about $ 3. These saw blades intended for delicate items, and differ in some parameters (position of the teeth, cutting speed, etc..).
I tried almost all of the paintings and most of all I liked the saws Ultra Reverse. They have very sharp teeth. Every third tooth located in the opposite direction, whereby the cut is obtained as a substantially pure on one side and the other. They also have increased the distance between the teeth, it does not clog sawing sawdust during sawing.
Just sometimes I use the saw blades Superior Puzzle for the manufacture of puzzles, because they can be made very thin-cutting. At these saws the teeth in one direction and they do not have the wiring.
