Hi all, I am your basic carpenter and I install a lot of kitchen cabinets and laminate counter tops. My old Jigsaw just died and the reason why I liked it was I could cut the back of a sink cut out.
If you've never done one of these, you need to be able to cut within an inch or less of the backsplash.
All the new jigsaw bases are too wide to make this cut.
I remember for a while they were selling a model jigsaw that the head pivoted so you could make cuts pretty close to the edge of the tool.
I've been looking for either this kind or just any kind to just be able to make cuts like this.
I've looked around and so far have had no luck.
Anybody have any advice?
I've been cutting the back by turning the countertop over, but with some of the bigger counter tops it's not easy or convenient.
