Not sure if this is an indication of something starting to fail or wear out, or just the way it is ....
When I use my Jigsaw, it often starts to really "jump" like the blade is jamming up and the base plate bounces up and down.
Now I am wondering if this is something wearing out rather than my usage of it as it is happening when cutting any product (had it on Plywood, Aluminium, MDF and Pine 2x2) and with all blades (including brand new ones).
The jigsaw is a Bosch 650W one and I think I bought it back in 1998 so it is fairly old I guess but doesn't look too beaten up mind.
Is this par for the course? I just don't recall getting this problem more than very occasionally on the past but now it happens repeatedly on every cut and is starting to get very annoying!
I'll probably change to the Ryobi One+ Cordless if I have to replace.
