Hi what wet saw do you use? I am looking for a new one as my Vitrex - QEP Pro-750 Has broke and tbh I have never thought it was very gd.

Any recommendations?

Cheers Wil

i use that same saw, does me fine with a marchrist blade although i don't use it much , only when the sigma can't cut, i.e. 'L' shapes or trimming or stone

Whats the budget for another cutter.

No more than £200 really but would consider spending more if someone can recommend a good one?

Maybe i should buy another Vitrex - QEP Pro-750 and a Marcrist blade = £163 from trade tiler?

I had the vitrex, with a marcrist blade. Used it for a few months with no issues, but then one day came to some tough porcelain tiles and was cutting them, then noticed a strange smell and immediately after the blade moved and the whole thing stopped working. Turns out the motor had got so hot it melted off its moorings, the blade then dropped down, and cut a groove in the bottom of the water well, and had started to cut into the customers concrete floor!

Blade is still working vitrex is in the skip. Currently trying to save for a Rubi ND200.

I've had a few cheaper ones and have now got an ND200. When I first used it I fell in love, brilliant machine, works like a charm. Never used the guide cutter before on previous machines because I found them a bit of a faff but with the nd200 it slides into place instead of putting it down and locking it. This makes life very easy as you can mark your tile then run the slider into place, dont bother locking it, to give you something to run against as you cut. Just helps you get a straighter cut with no extra effort. And with all that lovely shiny chrome she's sexier than megan fox in her undies!! If you can spare the extra cash then I'd just go for it. You wont regret it and it'll last you

I have the bigger brother of the ND200.. i have the Rubi Diamante D200 fully stainless steel machine..about £650 they are

And like quite a few on here now.. also have the Dewalt D24000 saw..

I got an e-mail newsletter from Rubi the other Day they are selling off refurbished stock at discounted prices it says to contact your local rubi stockist,all the cutters come with 3 month warranties they have both mechanical and electric cutters for sale hope this helps I fancy the nd300 as a tiler I know has one and raves on about it all the time
