Jigsaw Accessories
Jigsaw Guides, Base Plates, and Splinter Guards
Jigsaw accessories add accuracy and protect your work surface. Festool makes up most of this collection: Carvex circle cutters in imperial and metric, Carvex angle, hard fiber, low friction, and felt base plates, splinterguards for PS300, PSB300, and Carvex jigsaws, and guide stops, parallel guides, and circle cutters for PS300 and PSB300 saws. Collins offers coping feet for the Carvex and a universal version. Makita and Milwaukee add anti-splintering inserts, dust extracting attachments, a rip fence, and a shoe cover.
What to Look For
- Saw fit. Most accessories fit specific models. Check the jigsaw named in the title.
- Splinter control. Splinterguards and anti-splintering inserts reduce tearout on the top face.
- Guides. Circle cutters and parallel guides cut arcs and straight rips without a template.
- Base plates. Felt and low friction plates protect delicate surfaces.

Jigsaw Accessories FAQ
What is a jigsaw coping foot?
It is a replacement base that lets a jigsaw cope inside corner trim, such as crown and baseboard, instead of using a coping saw. Collins makes one for the Festool Carvex and a universal version for other jigsaws.
Do Carvex accessories fit TRION jigsaws?
Some do, many do not. The splinterguards here fit PS300, PSB300, and Carvex saws, but the Carvex base plates and circle cutters are Carvex only. Check the model names in each title.
