Simply the BestDec 18, 2006
By Tommy Noble
This is only my second Milwaukee tool the other being a super Saws All. A few weeks ago I ordered the DeWalt DW 331K Jig Saw and was so unhappy with it I returned it and ordered this Milwaukee 6268-21 Jig Saw. This tool is simply the best Jig Saw I've ever owned. Everything, and I mean everything works as advertised and whats more there is so little vibration it's not even worth mentioning. The tool is heavy enough to keep any cut exactly where and how you want it. The built in light is great for seeing your work. I can't tell you how helpful that is. I have always been a DeWalt fan until I bought there DW 331k. The blade would fall out at any opportunity, maybe it was just the saw I received, but if and when any of my DeWalt tools needs to be replaced there is a very good chance I'll only buy Milwaukee from now on.

Precision cutting tool with no equalSep 11, 2007
By Jaguar
I am in the middle of a major home renovation project. I am choosing to buy tools that last beyond the immediate job ( like my last set of tools - dept. store specials).

When I got the saw I inserted one of the t-shank blades that came with the saw and hit the trigger. WOW! My electric craving knife is a bludgeon compared to the finesse and control this jig saw has. My old dept store jig saw bounced around, vibrated and bucked once I turned it on , even worse when I started cutting. The Milwaukee Jig Saw was rock steady and smooth.

So onto the main project I bought this saw for:

I have a number of projects where fine precision cutting is required. One of these projects was to re-do the Master bath in my house. This meant totaly new sinks and countertop. After researching the best way to cut the countertop to size and to cut the openings for the sinks. The tool that was reccomended to me was the jigsaw. After researching and holding/using all of the various top end brands (Bosch, Freud, Ridgid, Makita, Milwaukee) I narrowed it down to the Bosch or Milwaukee. The Bosch was real close but the Milwaukee won out.

A couple of factors in the Milwaukees favor:

-- 5 Year warranty
-- L.E.D. Light
-- Fit of Milwaukee in my hand

The Milwaukee cut through the countertop with ease. The anti-splinter device was installed however I also taped all of my cut lines. The anti-mar foot was perfect on the counter top and left NO scratches behind.

I used a blade designed to cut ceramic tile and it worked well in the Jig saw. I did not rush the saw and let the blade to the work. I tested the saw out on what would be waste to determine the proper blade speed and proper force to practice (Counter tops are real expensive ;) ). Once I was confident that I had the right settings and force, I cut the holes.

The saw preformed flawlessly. The saw does have a port for dust colletion however you may need to buy the accessory kit to fit your particular shop vac. But for me the included dust blower worked fine as I made my cuts.

The Jig saw also provides attachment points for a t-square howerver that is sold separtely. But both of these items are designed to fit in the case. THe case is designed to be a "kit" case meaning that the basic tools required for more jobs will fit in the saw.

One of the major points I liked about the Milwaukee was the tool-less operation of the saw. To change a blade move a lever, to change the angle of the base move a lever. The speed control worked as described and once I figured out how to adjust the speed and the ortibiting of the saw to my work, I realized the value of the system.

My countertops look great with smooth edges. And best of all I have a tool that I have complete confidence in for the next precision cutting project.

As good as it gets.Jan 14, 2008
By R. Smith
As expected, typical Milwaukee quality. The heft of this saw takes a little getting used to, but just as with a handgun, weight buffers recoil. The weight makes this baby smoooooth. My tools are used for personal home improvement use, but I appreciate quality. This is the sixth Milwaukee tool I have purchased. They cost more, but I continue to choose to pay the difference.

My new favorite toolMar 10, 2008
By Brad K. Bryan
I love this saw. I can't afford a SawStop table saw or a Laguna bandsaw, but if this isn't the best jig saw out there, it's got to be darned close to it. My previous jig saw was a Freud J85, and the difference is like night and day. First of all, the fit and finish: This saw is made with precision. It cuts square and doesn't drift when cutting along a straightedge (like the Freud used to). Second, the LED light and the dust blower make it easy to follow the cut line (the Freud piled the dust right on the cut line, even if the cumbersome dust collection attachment was used). Third, it is balanced well (whereas the top-heavy Freud was just too big for it's base and would tip over backwards with half a chance, especially with the dust collection attached). The tool-less blade change is positive and effortless (actually, the Freud was OK there, too, one of it's few virtues).
I bought the Freud at a "bargain" price, but it made me angry every time I got it out to use. This tool just makes me smile. :>)

Another winner from MilwaukeeJan 12, 2009
By AM "Andy"
As I looked for a new jigsaw, each one had some problem or other that made me keeep looking. Some of the cheap-o brand saws actually seem to have better features and functional design than the name brand tools! But this Milwaukee has it all. It's well engineered, has plenty of power, runs smoothly and precisely and has all the features that I think are important. It's a heavy saw, and the weight contributes to the smoothness - the added weight isn't really a drawback at all. I particularly like the tool-less blade change, the ample power, and the very solid and precise bevel adjustment. All the controls work easily and well. The built in blower to clear sawdust from the cut line is a nice feature, and the LED light is actually useful. I also like the plastic no-mar sole plate cover, which many other jig saws also have and is a very nice feature. The long cord is a rarity these days when most power tool cords have gotten shorter. I have to say that I mostly don't use the anti-splinter shoe, since it makes the blade a little harder to see. With a fine blade I can cust across the grain on oak plywood (particularly splintery stuff) with little/no splintering even without the anti-splinter shoe. I also bought the edge guide/circle cutter - haven't used it yet but it fits ok and seems like a decent accessory - although too pricey. I have several Milwaukee tools and have never been disappointed. You can't go wrong with Milwaukee - great, heavy duty tools but also well engineered and designed to be a pleasure to use.
