Key Features
Multi-Base VersatilityThe Carvex jigsaw uses a tool-free base system, so you can switch from straight cutting to angle work, guide rail work, or circle cutting without slowing the job down. Cleaner, Straighter CutsA carbide blade guidance system helps keep cuts perpendicular, while splinterguards support cleaner edges in finish materials and visible surfaces. Complete Cordless KitYou are getting the Festool jigsaw, 4.0Ah battery kit, accessory base kit, and a 25-piece blade assortment in one setup, which makes this a ready-to-work package instead of a bare tool.
Overview
The Festool PSBC 420 EB Carvex Jigsaw 4.0Ah Systainer3 Kit with Imperial Accessory Kit & 25-Piece Blade Assortment is a cordless jigsaw kit built for accurate curved cuts, straight cuts, bevel work, and finish-sensitive cutting in wood. This is a jigsaw designed for precise cutting, layout work, and jobsite versatility. Model numbers in this bundle are 576535, 576790, and 204275. If you want one Carvex setup that covers the saw, the accessory bases, and a broad wood-cutting blade selection, this is the all-in package.
The core of the kit is the Festool PSBC 420 EB cordless Carvex jigsaw, which uses a brushless motor and an 18 volt battery platform. Festool says the cordless version keeps the same high level of functionality as the corded versions, which matters if you want cordless convenience without stepping down in performance. The variable speed motor automatically adapts to material hardness and feed rate, so the saw responds better when the cut changes from easy straight sections to tighter curves or denser stock.
Where this jigsaw separates itself from a lot of standard cordless jigsaws is cut control. Festool pairs the tool with a carbide blade guidance system to help maintain perpendicular cuts, even when the cut line gets tricky. That matters for finish carpentry, cabinet work, template work, and any job where you do not want the blade wandering and leaving a beveled edge you did not ask for. The stroboscopic LED system is another practical feature, flashing in sync with blade movement so the blade appears visually frozen during operation. In plain terms, it gives you a clearer view of what the blade is doing right at the line.
The included Imperial Accessory Kit is a big part of why this bundle makes sense. Instead of buying the saw now and adding capability later piece by piece, you get the full Carvex base and insert setup up front. That includes the angle base, guide rail base, circle cutter, metal cutting base plate, dimpled base plate, hard fiber base plate, StickFix base insert, splinterguards, and felts. On the job, that means you can set the saw up for different materials and different cut styles instead of trying to force one base to do everything.
The circle cutter and angle base are especially useful if your work includes repeatable radii, cutouts, arches, and controlled bevel cuts. The circle cutter has a built-in measuring scale, which makes layout faster and more repeatable. The angle base gives the saw stable support when cutting inside or outside angles, and the guide rail base expands how the jigsaw can fit into a more controlled Festool-style cutting workflow.
This kit also includes a 25-piece wood-cutting blade assortment. You get five each of Wood Fine Cut, Wood Universal, Wood Straight Cut, Wood Curves, and Wood Basic blades. That gives the saw a wider working range right away, from cleaner finish cuts to faster general-purpose cuts and tighter curved work. The blade assortment is compatible with any jigsaw brand that uses T-shank blades, which is helpful if you already run multiple jigsaws in the shop or trailer.
From a jobsite practicality standpoint, this package is organized around Systainer storage, so the saw and the accessory kit stay protected and easier to keep together. That is not just about looking neat on a shelf. With a system like this, the real benefit is not wasting time hunting down the angle base, the splinterguards, or the circle cutter when you need them. The cordless format also makes more sense for punch work, installed trim, site-built cabinetry, and any location where dragging a cord around finished spaces gets old fast.
Who should buy it? This setup is a strong fit for finish carpenters, cabinet installers, remodelers, woodworkers, and serious DIY users who care about cut quality and want one jigsaw kit that can do more than basic rough cutting. If you only need a simple jigsaw for occasional utility cuts, this is more tool than you need. If you want a premium cordless jigsaw platform with interchangeable bases, cleaner visible cuts, and real accessory support, this bundle is the right way to buy into Carvex.
See the Cut Line More Clearly
This cordless jigsaw is built for users who care where the blade is going, not just whether it gets through the material. Festool’s stroboscopic LED setup improves blade visibility while cutting so it is easier to stay on the line.
- LEDs sync with blade motion to visually freeze the blade in operation
- Useful for finish work, curved layout cuts, and any cut where line tracking matters
Set It Up for the Cut You Actually Need
The included base kit is what turns this from a premium cordless jigsaw into a full cutting system. Instead of working around one fixed shoe, you can match the setup to the material and the cut style.
- Includes angle base, guide rail base, circle cutter, and multiple base plates and inserts
- Tool-free multi-base platform speeds up transitions between straight cuts, bevel work, and specialty cuts
Keep the Blade Matched to the Job
A good jigsaw is only as useful as the blade you put in it. This kit gives you five different wood-cutting blade styles, so you can choose cleaner finish cuts, straighter ripping, or tighter curves without buying blades separately on day one.
- 25-piece assortment includes five blade types for wood cutting
- Compatible with any jigsaw that uses T-shank blades

Pro Tip
If you are doing finished work, start with the splinterguard and the base insert that best matches the surface before you ever pull the trigger. On this Carvex setup, taking a minute to swap the base or insert is usually what separates a rough jigsaw cut from one you do not need to explain later.
