Recommendations for new wet cutter

Grinder? A lot of people here use them. I do a lot of the time too. Can be easier to use a lot of the time

I use a cordless grinder for everything. I have 4 x 4ah batteries and it does me fine.

That said, I do tend to do certain types of tile.

What if you want straight lines though? Its fine if your doing curves..

A good eye and steady hand. Some people use a guide also

I tried using a grinder on these 1200's and the line I was getting was just not straight enough for my liking

What are those tile types out of interest

Yes, I wouldn’t use a cordless grinder for day to day cutting. I’m talking about L shape cuts, curves, large holes etc. I don’t use a wet saw anymore.

They are great for l cuts. Especially around sockets etc. So quick when metro ‘ing a kitchen

L cuts I am using the wet saw for one line and then scoring the other line and snapping off the unwanted piece.

What blade do you use for curves?

 

[acaciaguy]

Or you can score both. Then wet saw / grinder into the right angle. Then snap snap

I ended up using this for the 1200 porcelains for the cuts at the ceiling

What blade do you use for curves?

I uses a marcist blade for everything (non segmented) but then again I've only had 3 jobs

Score the other line first then use the wet saw on the short line then snap your scored line on the cutter.

That has a base plate I think? You could make your own fence to run the plate against to ensure a perfect straight cut. How do you find that tool?
