I fancy a micro wet cutter for around sockets on splashies and this has caught my eye

Looks a bit Mickey Mouse, but can't really tell of a photo:smilewinkgrin:

What's the price like Kev?
I use a Briccolina. It's compact, fast and can be used indoors so ticks all my boxes.

It looks ok mate but I'm sure its over £100?

I use a £80 Mcalister saw from B&Q as my main saw (untill I can afford to upgrade) and it's great, used it all day today to cut 600 x 600 Porcelain without a problem (apart from being a little awkward :lol

Not bad mate - not sure if I can say in this forum though??

Just under mate

I'm ordering my DeWalt this week, but want a dinky saw for small jobs - My PP Master is giving me electric shocks at the moment......

I've got one but don't use it anymore, I found it noisy, does the job but now have a Briccolina which so much quieter and so little splash when cutting.

Just done a quick search on the Briccolini - :yikes: Not cheap :yikes:

Briccolina which so much quieter and so little splash when cutting.

Is the Rubi uber noisy with loads of water splash??

 

[Daz]

The Briccy is in the ballpark of £100, Kev. I can send you a link if you are coming up double?

Aye mate, this was the first price I got....

'Ere ya go.

BRICCOLINA 230V ELECTRIC WET SAW

 

[White Room]

I got mine Briccolina for about £100, that is sooooooooooo expensive Kev

 

[merlecollins]

Cheers for that - I had found the same site

Noticing that it has a 0.33HP motor as opposed to the 0.8HP motor on the Rubi.....

I think it does look a lot more sturdy and long lasting than the Rubi though

that is sooooooooooo expensive Kev

Mental isn't it, bet they don't sell many at Creative Glass.....

 

[White Room]

I bet they don't:yikes:

I've been using my Briccy for over 3 years and it is still going strong. I've used it for everything ranging from cheap ceramic to full bodied porcelain, from glass mosaic to trav & slate. Being honest, I have abused this machine but it just keeps on delivering. I'll deffo get another when I kill this one off.

My ND200 died a couple of weeks ago.......after about 4 years use
