Bosch Jigsaw Blade Chart

[LeeG]

I was looking through my jigsaw box, and saw that I had a bunch of blades that I didn't know exactly what materials they should be used for. Bosch had a chart, but it was full of multiple SKU's for the same blade. I went through that chart, and made my own. It all fits on a double sided 8 1/2x11 sheet, and fits easily into my jigsaw case.

I thought it might be useful to someone else, so here is a link to it. This is T-Shank blades only.

Related note: If you are wanting to print charts for use in the shop, check out TerraSlate paper. It is tear and water resistant, and can be printed on with a standard laser printer. I used the 4mil and 7mil paper and print double sided on my laser printer.

Thanks, I have a big mess of assorted bosh brand blades. Some say on the blade, some don't. Some are very specialized, and I find those tend to work really well when used as directed.

I have a hot laminator... also useful for shop charts... cut small ones to size... punch a grommet... hang on a hook.

Thx Lee G; Just broke a blade for the first time in ages, necessitating a look into said drawer.
The Ikea style pictorials and symbols give my OCD and ADD the shudders, so your effort is most helpful and appreciated.
Fun fact- learned they have blades for curved cuts.....who knew just forcing it wasn't the proper technique, lol. This is a 3/4" piece of mdf cut to fit tightly on a Volvo S60R rear seat frame will be the basis to hold a pair of 15" subwoofers.
Also have some 1" that is even more fun to cut lol.
