Has anyone done a comparison between 365drills short life but cheap, diamond core cutters and the far more expensive but longer lasting cutter produced by firms such as Montolit.

how short life are they
 
ahrite, well all the houses im tilling are all porca tiles and its not like everything lasts for ever , i may still buy it just for the sake of if having it
 
i have a set and have cut over twenty holes on porcelain and there still going..so have earned there money no probs....
 
well the houses im working in at the moment have 1 bathroom usualy just the pipe at the sink and the flush button to cut around and the ensuite has 2 pipes at the shower and the same pipe at sink and flush button, im going to get 1 sooner or later and a lochboy, i know its not going t last forever and even when it starts to wear out its not like the hole has to be perfect coz its gettin coverd anyway,so lil chips at the edges arnt going to matter

last time I checked them out they were reckoning on at least ten holes. things may have changed ,so its best to give them a call. The expensive stuff seems to go on forever...cant say how many holes my cutters have done. You can check them out on Kwik Split

cheers for the link and info, i mite just Phone around and see if any1s usen them and see what they say.

macrist hole cutters are something like £300 for the set but apparently they can do 750 holes (think thats the right amount) in porc.
 
dont think im going to bother with the hole cutters anymore, just stick to the grinder and cuttin hammer, im still going to get a lochboy tho
