Water jet cutting.

Got a brochure through the post today from a company in Cheshire... Aquacut water jet cutting..


Does anyone get pieces etc water jet cut..?

Never really had a call for it yet ....

The possibilities are endless, I've had a few things done,
I mostly use it if the client doesn't want the shower enveloped, or if the shower is dished like a saucer. Send up a, say 60x60, comes back cut into 5x5 squares, stuck onto 30x30 mesh sheets, no sharp edges.

Not really had a cause, I say really, there have been 2 occasions were I 'could' have had a use for it but we changed to suit. I'll check them out for future, in case of

I'm currently getting 4m2 of 590x590 porcelain cut into mosaics and planted onto sheets.
Also I have an impressive hallway to tile on my current job with a double 100mm border to run around curved walls etc- it's being water jet cut for me too.
The templates are ready too.
The water jet machines are amazing !!

Quicker with the grinder,lol.

Yes, but search / watch some of the vids for that cutter, the noise is minimal, water splash is non-existent, and zero dust........................................ but iirc,, a hefty price tag, I still drool over them lol
