Wet saw problems

[Fred]

most tiles will have chips edges wen cut with a wet saw which as Gaz points out we cut the straight cuts normal tile cutter a little tip if you don't want any chip edges with a L shape score both lines with your normal cutter then wet cut at 45 deg at the corner of the tile to the point where the two scores meet then break the two pieces with your normal cutter Pete

Exactly how I do it.

Well things aren't looking any better...

Took the wickes unit back and nipped into B+Q to buy a plasplugs jobbie. Install the disc and it runs true with no visable runout. Come to put the cover back on and the disc fouls the cover. Its like the spindle sticks too far through from the motor side. Needs a couple of washer or something between the motor and the plastic moulding. :mad2:

Just hope the other one they had left isn't the same!

Here you go..... a nice offset to the right and scraping against the cover!

Should be a spacer in there mate............

Hi Dave, Where should the spacer be? The blade needs to be bought to the left so the only place I can think a spacer could go is by undoing the unit, removing the motor putting washer between the mounting face of the motor and the plastic to pull the spindle deeper into the unit?

On some units the spacer goes on before the blade.. have you fully checked the blade installation notes....
