DeWalt D24000 Tile Cutter - Oh what a beauty!

[merlecollins]

Such a thing of sheer beauty (no I'm not talking about Kelly Brook...!)

Came home tonight to find my newly delivered DeWalt D24000 in the hallway.

First impression was, OMG how enormous is this going to be, what a size the box is....

Notice the separate leg stand box, which is included in the excellent price at Tradetiler (which I must point out, David has said is to be increased at the end of this month, so get your orders in now!!)

Everything was packaged perfectly as to be expected from DeWalt.

Once all unpacked onto the kitchen table, I was expecting to have to get the University Professor that lives next door to come in and give me a hand assembling it:yikes:All the parts have an incredible feeling of build quality, which gave me the impression that this machine will last for years to come...

Anyway I got stuck in at precisely 4.30 pm....
First the legstand and water tray...

Next the saw itself...

The new model has an extra bolt and locating pins to secure the saw body to the rails...

So far, so good...

All done at 5.15pm (not bad for the first time..)

The one and only thing that I cannot demonstrate in a photo, is the incredible power you experience when you turn this machine on....WOW what a machine.
Cannot wait to get started with it.

The price is going up at the end of the month Joe

my big sigma cost over 1300 quid and that was well discounted so it might actually sell well too ! using it on marble job the last couple of days and going sweet.just big and heavy.

Well I got her out today for a porcelain floor I started this morning

The customer wanted the floor fixed straight bond but with the corners taken off on a 45degree angle and 300x300 black cut into squares to fill the corners - like an octogan and dot pattern

So, lots of repetitive cuttingrrr:

The saw handled the job beautifully, to the point that my customer commented on what a fantastic machine it was:hurray:

Quite a few 'owners' had already told me that I wouldn't regret buying one and after today I couldn't agree more:smilewinkgrin:

Can't recommend them highly enough and I have only used it for one day:lol:

Get used to the attention as you get that a lot.
