Wet tile saws? Which ones

[Scott]

I think your spot on with dewalt knowing their stuff. I have all their cordelss saws which make plying floors and boxing in a whizz and the impact driver can sink the screws in flush without piloting.

I guess now i just need the saw to speed up the cutting! Watch this space!!

Raimondi pikus 85 electric wet tile cutter 110v on eBay (end time 28-Feb-10 22:40:40 GMT)

I was half interested in this saw ^^^^ until i asked how much it weighed!

85 KG!!!!

No ta, dont think my back will take that

hi scott

now the only dilemma you'll have is whether to go for the 240v or 110v version???

i went for the 240v..i mostly do private contracts and domestic work but if you are on site a lot of the time then the 110v will be more beneficial.

the 110v version has the newer diamond blade and the larger flange,, but i think the newer 240v has this now..i just rang dewalt and they sent me out a flange and blade which was really decent of them..

And i went for 110volt as i can take it on site or domestic ....best of both worlds

the 240v does have a built in rcd!! which has been proven to be safer than 110v. we are one of only a hand full of countries that use 110v tools. most of europe dont and i dont think australia do either?? the uk was meant to be altering the law regarding the use of 110v tools to rcd protected but i havent seen any new implications as yet? so as sir ramic says, go for the 110v to cover yourself if you do site work

Id have to go with the 240 as i never do site work, was offered it years ago for kitchen fitting but all my stuff is 240, never wanted to have to lug a 110 box around as well. Although i did buy one yesterday on fleabay for my new wacker concrete breaker!

I am on a list with a guy who sells reworked ones, so it may npt be the most uptodate model but still has the 12 months waranty 🙂

I'd get 110v just in case

more water on the floor than i would have hoped for, is that normaly spillage? i kinda want to be able to use this either inthe room im working in, if said room is big enough, or at least in someones garage or possibly set up in the back of the van. I cant be doing with all the running up and down stairs, im just not used to it!

Anyone got one of the makita hand held cutters i've seen on tradetiler? They look as they could be handy for nipping off little bits or the odd cut here and there?

 

[White Room]

I've got one and be honest it seems to collect more dust in the lock up than any use it gets

Must remember to put it into the van next time
