- In this video I will show how to make a jigsaw blade clamp... If you're like me, and received an old vintage jigsaw that you love, and broke pretty much immediately... Power tool repair time!

I recently received this old jigsaw, and find that it's way better than my Black & Decker jigsaw, but I think I tightened the blade clamp/holder too much, and it broke. In the beginning, I wasn't sure if I would be able to repair it, but I fixed it on the first try, drilling the holes perfectly even without measuring! I'm really happy with the outcome of this repair and hope to use it for many more projects! I think this might even be better, helping me cut more accurately using my jigsaw!

What the hell is "chinesium"? I have never heard that word in my life. It took me completely out of this video.
Oh. This is the definition of chinesium: www.reddit.com/r/Justrolledintotheshop/comments/62a334/well_shit_today_seems_to_be_post_your_chinesium/
And this: www.reddit.com/r/Chinesium/comments/4caxqr/these_chinesium_drill_bits_should_hold_up_well/
Basically Chinese junk that's impossible to use because it's so horribly made, mostly the fault of the materials used.
You mean cheap? Why didn't you just say that? I have literally never heard anyone say chinesium. I don't even know if I'm saying it right. Chin-isum? ugh, I'm so angry! don't klnow why.

Thanks to this video I was actually able to find a piece of metal with a built in grove saving me the step of grinding in a grove. The 1/2” conduit clamps come with a grove already built in so all I did straighten out the metal, cut it to size and drill in the two holes. It works great!! Thanks for the idea.
Nice!
Thank you!! I just broke mine the same way. I don’t know if it has the screw holes but I’ll know for sure tomorrow!! Thanks again!!!
Είχα ένα τέτοιο εργαλείο χαλασμένο για περισσότερο απο δύο χρονια .Είχε ακριβώς το ίδιο πρόβλημα. Χάρις στο βίντεο σου το έφτιαξα όπως ακριβώς το δείχνεις. Σε ευχαριστώ.

I had such a tool damaged for more than two years. It had exactly the same problem. Thanks to your video I made it exactly as you show it. Thank you.

Excellent!
Thanks for the tip that's just saved me money
Glad I could help, it hasn't failed me yet!
Congrats a true repair i have same black & Decker jigsaw UK made ,the clamp is made from antimony a metal that snap in time i will try same repair if mine fail without having to buy any overpriced parts
Aha. It really did feel like some type of cast aluminum with sand grains mixed into it.
It's still new, just a bit bent, as expected.
Bravo. Thank you very much.
Glad to help!
Thanks for the solution 👍👍👍
Thanks for the great solution
Happy to help - it's still going strong!
SÜPER 👍👍👍👍👍
Glad you liked it! :)
What is the item you use to replace it, can you specifically name it? I can fine aluminium rail with the same look but I don't think aluminium can stand the wear and tear
Are you referring to the small piece of steel flat bar?
@@Yonatan24 what do you think if I'm using aluminium rail
Is this a jigsaw fence, or are you going to make a clamp out of aluminum flat bar? I don't think it'll last. It probably isn't worth the effort.
@@Yonatan24 yup, I see.. Thanks!
my super expensive badass heavy duty professional germanium(made in chinium) brand jigsaw, brake its without tool blade holder in something more than one year of continue use and slighty after warranty expired. it cost me another 80 euro to repair it. i start missing my 20+ years old diy brand jigsaw with hexagon tool holder
I can't seem to understand exactly what you mean. Did your jigsaw blade clamp break too, and the repair cost 80 Euros? Wow!
What's the hexagonal tool holder?
Hi, my jigsaw clamp broke too, i dont know where to get a replacemen uhuhu
Can you do what I showed in the video? What is the name/brand of you jigsaw?:
Try this: www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_blrs=spell_check&LH_BIN=1&_nkw=jigsaw+blade+clamp&_sop=15
W.T.F. That is unbelievable. I just picked up a jigsaw from the 2nd hand store and not knowing that it was missing the blade clamp. Could not find one on the net to buy and now I am here. Next step make my own thanks a million!
Awesome! Glad to have helped!
had a similar damaged clamp..
Did you fix it?
Could anyone make me a clamp for mine? Fell to pieces but machine strong still!
Uk
That's unlikely, I would look for the part on eBay or at local thrift stores.
how u fix a broken blade stuck in jigsaw tho????
I'm not sure as it depends how it happened and what exactly the situation is
@@Yonatan24 its broke off in there, can't get it out, kinda looks like 2 blades but idk if that's possible I was using it w a blade stuck in there?..
@@Eastbaypisces I'm not sure. Try using a spray lubricant and moving it back and forth until it loosens
just heard my father said to me he throw away his jigsaw bcause of this part broken.
Fix it! If you can.
First. Hehe anyways i got a new $150 camera for $20! SCORE!!
And would u recommend a angle grinder or rotary tool first?
Really? Awesome! Which camera? Are you going to post more videos with it?
Yonatan24 most likely. I just need to get money to buy more materials now. I ran out and used my last 20 bucks to buy the camera. Its the kodak easyshare z980 with 24x zoom. Its a mirrorless camera and its goes for about 150 on amazon and i bought it used on a app called letgo for 20bucks. He said he bought it and it wasnt what he was looking for. Lucky me!
I don't have an angle grinder, they are big, loud, scary, and pretty dangerous if you use them incorrectly, I prefer cutting steel by hand and feeling safe. I actually have a video coming soon in a few weeks about an angle grinder tip/trick... :)
I use my Dremel rotary tool for bunch of stuff, mostly for cutting thin, hardened steel, which I can't cut with a hacksaw because hardened steel can't cut hardened steel, while a cutoff disk can. I actually have a playlist of projects you can make with only a rotary tool: th-cam.com/play/PL1ekTfyu7SIU7oIIB-y-fMP-AfOpENoRs.html
Yonatan24 sweet thanks! I will be getting a rotary tool then. I had a dremel but it broke
