Parts for Freud FJ85 jigsaw? - jeffmorris - 09-26-2015
I found out that the Freud FJ85 jigsaw that belonged to the woodshop at the program for mentally-handicapped people had a gear broke off the motor shaft. I tried to search the Internet for stores that sell parts for power tools but I can't find any stores that sell parts for Freud FJ85 jigsaw. I think that Freud stopped making power tools a long time ago because Freud sells saw blades and router bits only. Any suggestions?

It's a long shot, but call Bosch (630-705-7810). Apparently, when they bought the Freud bit/blade business part of the deal was to provide Freud power tool parts in the US. That's how I got some parts for my Freud 1700 router.

I don't know that it'd be economical but Freud parts can be purchased - in Europe. I have a Freud router and was just checking on parts for future reference. I did find parts in the UK, didn't look at shipping.

I was thinking something along those lines, that's why I asked.
