Just bought this m12 jigsaw this weekend. Works like a champ. And here’s a pict my fat ass with the jigsaw. Only problem is I need more stuff to cut.
I love that little jig saw. It has awesome control for cutouts and detail work. It’s the only jig saw I ever use. It won’t exactly blow through 2X, but how often are you cutting 2X with a jig saw anyway? I think it was a fine investment Harold. As a bit of trivia, It’s the only tool I ever pre-ordered. It will probably have that distinction until Milwaukee decides to answer my prayers for an M12 pop rivet gun.
Nice buy Harold, you werent kidding about setting tools on towels haha!!
Lol. We are going to have to start a petition so Milwaukee will produce a m12 pop rivet gun.
Ha ha. Your right Chase about setting my tools on towels. It a bad habit.
Harold you need to give us a tool tour!, does this have an led light?
Another tool that’s on my I need too buy eventually down the road when I have the extra money.
It would be neat to see Milwukee release a Fuel M18 jigsaw with the barrel grip!

Yes, it has an LED. It also has tool-less blade change and adjustments. I wouldn’t take $500 for mine if I couldn’t get another one. It’s a awesome little saw. I use for mostly for cut outs in my primitive furniture projects and such.
Well conductor beat me to answer your questions. Conductor would be a lot better for a tool tour but maybe I can do something. So far it’s everything Conductor says it is. That’s a good idea about a m18 barrel grip Chase.
Don’t want to spoil the fun Harold. I just get excited when we start talking about the M12 Jig saw 🙂
Which is the better jig saw the m12 or m18? I wish there was a comparison video on them. I think the M12 has more features and better ergonomics overall.
Imho the m12 jigsaw has more then enough power. The ergonomics are great. Rubber over molded handle and top, so I’m thinking they designed it so you can drive down on it.
Does it have a bevel feature?
Yes, it has a great bevel feature. All you do is release a lever, move it to the degree you want, and close the lever. Simple and quick.
OK. I Finally did a quick (crappy) tour of the m12 jigsaw. It Is my first ever video so it’s bad. But I did it. You can at least turn the volume off and look at the jigsaw.
I now have more respect for Eric and Dan and Chase and anyone that makes videos. It took me 5 times just to get this crappy video.
LOL, I’m gonna have to do some video before long. I’m not big on the idea either.
I think it’s a great video. Good job
Funny. Seriously it’s crap. I will be the first to admit it. I don’t care. I have even more respect for you and Dan. I just think I sound bad and look worse. Maybe I need a friend there and a gun on the wall. Then Then I would be one bad ass mother. 🙂
