Profiling wheels and bull nosing bits .

[DHTiling]

How many of you would buy Stone profiling wheels for your electric cutters like this..

Or the hand profiling bits like these for grinders..

If Trade tiler was to get something like these would you buy them...?

These can be used for Porcelain and Stone tiles...


I for one would , so what about you..?

 

[Gazzer]

Yes, i was thinking about one for the Dewalt actually but would have one for a grinder too

:drool5:

I like the idea of that, but it would depend on how much they are. Very handy bit of kit i should think when you use it but I think it would be sat in the van on 9 out of 10 jobs.

Indeed you are right but i would be telling the client i could bullnose the tile as i did today...they were amazed it could be done...luckily it was only Travertine,, but i didnt tell them how it was done

 

[Bolter]

I would be interested.

 

[CJ]

It would depend on how much they cost, and how much use they would get.

But I would be interested, unless they where silly money

 

[doug boardley]

I'd definitely be interested in both:hurray:

Ive never used one on the wet cutter or the grinder but it could be something to offer the customer (after a bit of practice).

As said, depending on price but it's all relevant to what you charge to the customer.

 

[harry]

I would be interested depending on the price ....

 

[Aston]

we need a nicely priced 'wet router' for stone on the market too!! i know makita make them but i dont know who sells them or a what price they go for...then we would have no limits to our creativity lol

Ditto to the above. and yes i would!!

 

[Ken Bruty]

Definitely would consider it with all the steps I seem to get in my work. Depends on price though

[merlecollins]

I would, for sure

It would be nice to buy kit like this from a friendly face like David

 

[TT Tiling]

put me down for some ,

 

[CJ]

Just had a quick look about.........and at the present exchange rate...........this one is £100.27 + shipping?

 

[DHTiling]

Don't forget colin that is a single purchase... buying in bulk from the manufacture makes a difference..

I just want feedback on interest and then prices can be looked into.

 

[DHTiling]

Also handy for skirting tiles to bull nose... or even pool copings..

 

[Scott]

Much quicker on window reveal than bevelling them all, id buy them and promote it massivley to the customer. Only needs a sample of a piece on the van to show them.

I like the idea of skirting tiles with that edge too, what about small upstands on worktops too?

The list of possibilities is endless IMHO... Remember you can bull nose porcelain tiles and then polish... no trims with polished porcelains on walls etc.. worth thinking about.

Make all corners softer to look at..

These bits are virtually none existent in the uk, so deffo a need for them as stone etc is so so popular now..

 

[mikethetile]

Scottleys right

you can steal a march on your competition by offering this now

 

[Daz]

I'd have them for my grinder. I've been looking at getting them from the US for a couple of months now, but Tradetiler would deffo be my preferred option .

 

[aqua blue]

I'm thinking outside corners. Handy wheel.

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Just to add my £120-00 worth - they do take a little getting used too - about 1 linear metre of practise, but are an absolute must for all stonework.
Yes I would buy them from Tradetiler.

So Dave N...........its over to you :smilewinkgrin:
