hello all again. I took the advice and am improving with practice but still have the usual novice questions: Am I using a proper blade? I inherited this saw from an uncle and am using his old blades and I don't know how worn they are. Also, I'm almost clueless and just guessing the 'darker' blades are for metal and the 'bright and shiny' ones are for wood? Regardless, I'll buy new blades at the store tomorrow. Web search results in alot of shopping info and where to buy the stuff but product descriptions are brief and limited. I'd appreciate a point in the right direction. Thanks to all again.

hi, the wall is smooth concrete. My room was presumably the linen room of the previous owner where the help had their soap stars patched over blotches on the wall. Turns out the guys who renovated the house before we bought it painted over 2 or 3 lousy paint jobs as well as pinups glued on the wall. There was also water leaking from the ceiling and it added water damage to the crummy paint job that I'm stripping.

hello all, I tried a metal cup brush to strip 'bubbly' paint from a wall I need to refinish but i think there's a better tool for this. Any suggestions?

Thanks to all. I WILL practice.

hello all, can anyone give me info on to better control my jigsaw. i always end up with crooked and curve cuts and i'm sure my inexperience has alot to do with this. thanks.
