For the jigsaw, there is no substitute: http://remgrit.com/rg-carbidegrit-jb.html I’ve used exactly two of these over the past 7 years or so.

See this topic also, where Rich found something similar: http://www.skibuilders.com/phpBB2/viewt ... sc&start=0

For jig saws check out the Bosch T130RF or T150RF for Ceramics!

I have to jump on the bandwagon for the Bosch jig saw blades as well. I cant say for certain how long they last, but I cant remember the last time I had to change a blade. For what it's worth, we've knocked out 4 pairs and a snowboard this past week with the current blade.
Planer blades though......dont get me started.
