   What kind of blade is it?

   Will it work fast on rough frames?

   Just because you can, doesn't mean you should!

   Warning! Be cautious when taking any framing advice from me. Although I have a lifetime of framing experience, all of it is considered bottom of the barrel by Gabe. According to him I am not to be counted amongst the worst of the worst. If you want real framing information...don't listen to me..just ask Gabe!

   Is this what you're talking about?  If so I just bought some a couple weeks ago at HD.

   I've got this bad twitch now. I always check the file size on any of your attachments before I click on them.

   won't help...

   ya just gotta be brave....

   Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming

   WOW!!!   What a Ride!

   several of you posted the pic shown on line HomeDepot.  But the photo does not reflect the product description... the description accruately reflects what I am looking for.  I will stop by there this PM.  It IS what I am looking for...and yes, there is nothing like it ANYWHERE!!!  Thanks.

   Either the "progressor" blade about 4" long, or the sawzall type of "bow saw" blade is all I can think of.

   I got an UGLY pruning blade made by skil at the Home Depot in Minneapolis a few weeks ago.

   Very aggressive teeth - don't know how long it stays sharp though - not much use yet

   blade is for recip saw - not jig

   Yes, I have purchased and used the UGLY blades for awhile now.
   They cut really fast and you can be a bit more surgical with them than with normal sawsall blades.
   I purchase them at Home Depot.Tom

   went to a HD and picked up a pack of 5 yesterday.  Not the exact blade it used to be...it used to be REALLY ugly...but it is close enough.  Should work fine.  photo on the web does not match the item # and description, interestingly enough.  thanks again.

   I like the 12" Milwaukee "the ax" blades.  Just get a good hold on the saw.

   Try the Starrett B-123 blade, you won't be disappointed.

   Met a Bosch rep, he said Bosch was going to sell an "ugly" blade, was going to send me some to try out.  Nothing yet!

    

   You can get the Starrett blades here.
