Cheers Bri, M2 price hasnt changed too much then across the board. Spoke to tile merchant today told me of a tiler that was in just uped his standard m2 price to £50 m2..great if he can get it. Havent saw job yet, unsure if floor is concrete or ply so cant yet comment on backerboards.

Back to it after a very quiet spell- Latest Alright all, After being dead quiet for the las 6 months or so the phone has started ringing again. Only problem is Im sure in that time much has changed. To ensure Im not miles off any chance of a bit of advice re quote? 30m2 600x600...

£90 ex VAT, reasonable IMHO.

Went for the 250/25 for £90 ex VAT but they also do, 105/22 115/22 125/22 Id consider one for my grinder, it be handy for sockets etc if only a bit smaller. Take it you get on well with the inverted A on the grinders?

I got one of my mates to pick up an inverted A ultra thin blade from Diatech. Hadnt heard much about them but its looking good.

Sorted, the answer was to buy a new blade. Picked up a porcelain blade this morning and Im now getting good straight cuts and mitres are neat and tidy. Minimal chipping and running true through the saw. Maybe just the stock blade wasn't up to the strength of today's porcelain tile. Thanks all...

I'll try that and get back to you. Cheers.

I did a straight cut with the wet saw before the mitre. If I mitre through the middle of a tile it cuts straight but leaves a messy edge that would be noticeable. So it only seems to be struggling when I mitre along the edge of a tile trying to leave that 1mm to ensure a clean leading edge.

Ok so I have sharpened the blade as suggested by Dave ,cut and measured numerous tiles and have got the saw to a place where its pretty much cutting on line....however tilt the saw to mitre and the cut runs off. I have attached a pic of a mitre cut on a 200mm off cut of tile to show you what...

It's more when cutting L shaped cuts that you require to be true, not so much the normal cut that like you said can be hidden.

I know what your saying. I'm tempted just to live with it, as I said I don't mitre often at all but theres something saying it's a new saw and if it's not sorted it will end up doing your head in.

I'll give that method a try tomorrow, cheers.

Yeah I checked the blade and its secure......

Found this in a previous post by Peckers and may explain my issue re mitres. dewalt blade 90 degree cuts very good fine clean crisp cuts and cuts very fast too on 90 degree angle and takes slithers off with out a problem. 45 degree cuts if you are doing mitres and you cut your tile with a...

Defo need to try something, all be it I dont mitre often but would like to have the option. I will try side pressure in case the wheel is just pushing the tile when cutting and see how it goes. David is the DNA any good on ceramic and porcelain? Thats the majority of my jobs.

Strange, I have tried everything and it seems that just when I have it cutting on line as soon as I flip to mitre it runs off again leaving top of tile cut correctly but by the time the cuts finished the other end still has 2-3mm of material left. Could it be me???....hope not.

Ah, Im wondering if its just not setup correctly. Are you guys still using dewalt blade?

Good to know cheers :thumbsup:

These a post from a few years ago about one running off line but apart from that havent found much re my issue. So yours cuts L cut leaving a perfect 90 degree? and mitres are spot on?

Hi all, Well the D24000 saga continues. Have been having real issues with setting up the Dewalt 24000, at only a few weeks old and after being used on only 2 jobs have been troubled with the saw running off line. After hours of adjustments I have just about got the saw cutting true in a...
