Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bosch JA1003 Circular and Parallel Cutting Guide for Bosch Jig Saws

Customer Review: An Embarrassment to Bosch
Summary: 2 Stars

I did get this thing to work, but barely.
1) The centering pin is too short, so that only the tip reaches the workpiece. This means that if you drill the recommended size pilot hole, you get a very sloppy fit. Even with a smaller hole, you have to hold down the point quite firmly, bending the metal arm. I'll be using a 3/32 or smaller hole, rather than the recommended 13/64.
2) The scale doesn't make sense. Cutting a 140mm hole, the 170mm mark was centered on the blade. The 140mm mark wasn't aligned with anything in particular.
3) It just doesn't have the solid quality of the Bosch power tools I have bought recently.

Tip: Cut very slowly, and you can get a good circle. The manual mentions cutting slowly, but the required speed is slower than I would have guessed. It works fine once you find the right pace, but practice on a scrap!
