Standard Door. How would you suggest cutting off around 4mm from the bottom? It isn't a solid door. So there's not much tolerance for cutting the top or bottom. Only tool on hand would be a jigsaw. What would you suggest as the easiest cleanest way of doing this?

Tooth size as well. Or, tape it mark the tape and prevent this.

I wonder why most jigsaw blades face in the wrong direction?

one detail to consider is that these blades require more pressure than standard blades. the teeth pointing up pulls the wood up when cutting, and that pulls the saw down. these blades push the wood down and the saw up. it's not a big difference with softer materials like wood but it's still a difference!

That is a reverse-tooth blade (also commonly called a down-cut blade or reverse-pitch blade). Specifically, in Bosch's jigsaw blade range, this is the Bosch T101BR ("Clean for Wood"). The "R" in the model code stands for Reverse.

Can you not just attach the blades the other way around?

what will help is having a sharp blade, go slow so don't push, the right blade for the material (hard or soft wood) and put some painters tape on as that reduces the tear out as well 😊

also finer teeth produce nicer cuts. but often takes longer.

So what do you search for, do these blades have a specific name? Great tip 👍
