Hello Fellas !

Up to 200 pounds. That is not included blade, I want to buy decent diamond blade.

Thanks!

Hi Pav..

Does it need to be a 180mm wheel.?

 

[Furtek]

I thought that this is best, but no. May be a different size Dave

 

[DHTiling]

Tradetiler does the ND200 and IMO is a cracking table saw.. and the motor will last years

 

[Furtek]

is it easy to make mitres corners on it ?

 

[DHTiling]

Yes it has a full tilting bed..

mitred corner is easy, just don't cut too close to the edge( can chip ). cut 1mm from edge and finish with polisher

doesn't have to be flex

just a quick update over the rubi's

according to dave at tradetiler, rubi have phased out the nd300!! he has got the last 9 so get in there if you want one because when there gone, their gone.

also, rubi have just altered the nd200. they have removed the side support bar so its just a flat bed cutter!! backward step if you ask me but there you go. make sure that the nd200 you order is one of the current/old stock ir else you might be a bit dissapointed..

I don't use the bar anyway, I find it pinches the tile between the blade and the bar when cutting....

The Rubi ND200 is a bit of a mixed bag really.
I've had mine for years,and yes the motor is good, and use a Motolit DNA wheel and it'll serve you well. It cuts lovely, but....
When mitering, i find if you have the machine stood on a wide flat surface it won't allow the bed to move to a full 45 degree position. Hard to explain, but the bed tilts to the right, so if you stand the machine on the right hand side of a bench, the bed will drop down further and give you the proper 45 degree cut.
The gauge is a bit duff and takes some setting up, and the guard post especially with a thin porcelain wheel doesn't allow the tile to slide very easily.But in spite of its faults i do like it.

The Vitrex QEP 750 is a decent saw for about £100. It's a bit useless at mitering because of the bed tilting up rather than down but it's a lot cleaner to work with than the Rubi due to the enclosed water tray and water circulation, so you won't find a big puddle under your work area.
