    Hi,
    A bit if my ROK Power tools 350w jigsaw broke today (photo here https://photos.app.goo.gl/7YU1dHQKHoSMtbps2 ) can anyone tell me what the bit is and if I can track one down easily. Jigsaw doesn't owe me anything and is not worth much but if I can find this bit for a few euros there's life in it yet.

    Thanks.

    Thanks for that, the thing is it's only the roller blade guide that's broken, it is easily replaced. If I could get one somewhere for a few quid, it'd save me buying a new jigsaw which I don't want to donate the moment.

    This is pic now I hope. I didn't have an upload option earlier, or I didn't see it anyway.

    They're an Australian brand, pretty much only sold in Woodies, they're not really meant to be fixed.

    Try emailing them, ye never know! I had a draper ratchet loppers and the spring broke, emailed Draper with a .. and this was my favourite loopers ever, email :) They sent me 2 springs FOC.

    It's worth a go.

    By the way how long have you had the jigsaw?

    your best bet will be to find a broken one or a similar saw and take parts from that

    A new ROK jigsaw is only about €25, keep the old one for spares.
