When does the glue gun come in handy?
I use it for making templates mainly and for setting levels for latex, oh yeah and on the odd occasion for sticking down that odd bit of electric ufh.

We had a customer find out a year or two back that a glue gun was not the best option for tiling metros in a shower! Thought that because our merchandising team was doing a display in the showroom with one that it would be ok. It didn't last long.
 
I have the top one too. It might look like the Montolit STL but that’s as far as the similarities go unfortunately. I think Diatool brought out a finer grit one to compare to the grey STL blade but I’ve not tried it yet.

The bottom blade is very good. I have a dozen of those. Nice blades.
 
sorry for my ignorance on the subject. but why do you buy blades with that kind of Crown?
I tried only montolit with that design, but with hard tiles, I left it after a few days

I don't know yet! Hopefully for removing material quicker when doing mitres.
 
It won’t work for that I’m afraid.

If it’s material you want to remove then you’re better off using the other blade you have. It’ll do a better job. Then a good profiling disc.

I’ve not found a good use for the Diatool vacuum brazed M14 disc as yet.
