This review is from: Makita Bare-Tool BJV180Z 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Jig Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)
This is a saw that lives up to the Makita standard. It beats the majority of corded models in ways from trigger feel to motor to quick-change blade to light to base-angling and if I do need it, don't have it, and have to use someone else's I'm often disappointed. It's a truly great saw.

But what the #ell is with the case oversight? A precision tool like this needs a friggin case. Not a bag, a case. With blade storage built in and a place for the couple extra base parts.

I would buy a case separately and would be fine with that. But it's not for sale. I find this a nuisance.

Luckily I *CAN* take a day and design and make one, but I'll still be dreaming of that sweet green factory blowmolded case with little plastic storage windows...

Come on. Bump this up so they do it. CASE PLZ
