Scott,

I often find that when my jigsaw blade wanders that it is either because I am pushing along too hard/fast, or that the blade is dull. Try a new blade and slowing down and see if that works.

: The only problem is that the saw blade is fadding away from the strait line.

: The guide is not moving, the blade is bending.
: Any tips on how to make it work correctly.
: Thanks,
