I bought one of these from Tradetiler a while ago, i had a kitchen floor to do. It had a laminate floor which needed to come up, the laminate ran continuously from the hallway and they only wanted to change the kitchen.
This machine was brilliant for cutting the laminate across the threshold of the door allowing me to remove the kitchen floor without disturbing anything else🙂

well i will say its good for some jobs , but as far of drilling many holes in porcelain who are you trying to kidd , it will strip the diamonds off as it gets to hot as it runs so fast, have had 4 bits replaced , tried it for 5 months and have stopped using it , just use it for repairs and trimming , its good for ceramics and some floors but not alot. CTD are fed up of replacing bits and iam not the only one that has send this,

I am sorry to hear of your issues with the Diamond X-Bit. But you really should try our new X-Cores. The larger sizes (25mm, 30mm and 35mm) will do over 100 holes, DRY! and depending on the thickness of the tile, it takes about 10 seconds (Thicker tiles will take a few seconds more). If you dip the bit in a cup of water just to quench the diamond after evry hole or couple of holes, you will get at least 100 holes out of those sizes.

Nick
i wouldnt say that really does not answer my issues, with bore bit you recommend for porcelain a few months ago, the x cores now you say should be dipped into water which would make more sense, but i have heard this all before, drill 100 holes, in what products are you getting these results?

Looks good, you would not believe how many brands i've been through. Our rooms are generally porcelain or stone. Definitely gonna look into tooling the lads up with these.

By the way, dust is far better than slimy refractory, marble or porcelain residue.

Remember boys.....................wear your masks if no ventilation....😛rrr: = life:ban:
