Hi

I have seen this tool advertised around as being very good for cutting apertures etc in tiles upto 8mm thick. I have read many reviews and they are about 50/50 in thier rating...some think it's great while others say it's rubbish. Has anyone here had any experince with it?

Thanks.

it would do the job but as to how long the wheels last is another thing. You may be better with a makita 4191DWD

Hi

thanks for that I will check the Makita out. After looking further at the Exakt sange I see that they have a model DC270 which is a larger tool....any ideas about this one?

Cheers.

I have both. Small one no good for cutting tiles except very thin ones though great for raking grout. DC270 will cut through some stone tiles but much better to get a proper table saw. Best saw IMO for cutting ply.

Guys

Many thanks for your response and help.

Hi Sandyfloor

Which do you think is the easiest to use...the DC270 or the EC310N/ EC320 [newer model than EC310N with better switch and guard control features]. I will mainly be cutting 6mm porcelain tiles/ plywood and floor boards....and probably the odd door. I will be hiring a wet cutter but need something for the more detailed cuts. Your opinions would be appreciated.

 

[SandyFloor]

If you hire a wet cutter you won't need an Exakt saw. No Exakt saw will look at porcelain tiles anyway.

Great, many thanks.
