To all the Bosch jigsaw owners:
I am planning to get either the 1587 or the 1590 (or one of the barrel styles) in the next few months. I figure this is going ot have to handle any curve cutting I do for the next 1-2 years, or until I get a big raise and the CFO allows a bandsaw purchase. I mostly plan ot do small to medium furniture projects, such as a PB-inspired mudroom bench, a shaker inspired hall/sofa table, etc.
1. How much better is the 1590 vs the 1587? $10 $20? $40
2. Are there any downsides to the new and "improved" version as opposed to the tried and true 1587?
Interested in any opinions, and especially if you've tried both!
Thanks!
