Which wet cutter to buy?

[Dumbo]

Forgot to say, @whitebeam gave me a brilliant tip about nd200 a while back, use a 9 inch paint tray instead of the tray Rubi supplies and it will leave the shallow end sticking out a bit to make it quick and easy to refill and a lot less messy

I used to do that as I broke my rubi tray

Brilliant. I have a cordless grinder. I’m thinking about getting a variable one to use for polishing. Do variable speed grinders offer any advantage when cutting? YES Do diffent tiles cut better at different speeds?YES What are the speed settings on that bosch?

a lower speed, avoids overheating of the blade.
you will have a slower but continuous cut.
in any case, each tile is different from the other,
using it, you can understand better

It must’ve been a couple of years since I got my wet cutter out.

Variable grinder?

I do have a variable grinder/polisher but for cutting I use a standard cordless grinder for virtually all cuts I do.

Variable grinder?

Which grinder to you use waluigi? On a similar note what blades / speeds for what tiles. ?
Do you use a guide or just by eye for long straight cuts
Beat me to it

I just use a Bosch 18v Grinder.

I used a combination of blades- Montolit CGX and various Chinese blades. I don’t alter the speed depending on what I’m cutting. I use a grinder.

Some of the cheaper blades I now use mean that the Montolit have priced themselves out of the market for me. On cutting blades anyway. I’d buy another STL blade as I find it really good.

Speaking of blades, these just fell onto my doorstep as I typed!

Thanks @ATSDiamondTools for the test blades. I’ll be sure to report back.
