Looks like manufacturers are starting to make products with good dust control.
Diamond Cutting System DSC AG 125 FH Plus | eBay

It looks like it's just a rebranded Protool and there's a few videos on Youtube showing them cutting Porcelain etc ...but it's the dust control I'm interested in. I know it's not specifically sold in the UK for some reason but it looks like an ideal solution to cutting long tiles (or cutting inside if it's THAT good) with minimal investment.
 
Oow oow!
Been looking at that for ages! Haha
I'd be curious to know if they're any good too!

Did you see the one @LEE MAC posted other night?

I remember that the diamond wheel rotates in the reverse?

That would make sense!
The way the dust extraction is positioned lends itself to more efficient dust collection.
The blade is on opp side to the way most use a grinder, however, that's the way I've used it for more than 10yrs.
It pushed the dust away from you, rather than toward, which means you don't get covered in crap!
it's safer that way round too.
 
Cheers Martin,
Did u go for the other one tho?

No, I went with the one I linked to. I've got the Bosch gct 115 which has the extractor hood and it's "ok." I like this one for 2 reasons, first being depth of cut guide rail attachment and second being the whole of the wheel is enclosed so dust extraction should be excellent.

They are both the same angle grinders but with different attachments

Excellent!
That'd be my choice, can't beat a good guide rail! Haha
Now we get to see two reviews!:thumbsup:

It's just a shame it's not sold as an attachment!
Don't spose it mitre's? 🙄 Haha
 

Yes! :thumbsup:

Will review it once it comes. I have a sheppach Sri
Saw in the lockup. Wonder if it will take a tile blade. Don't suppose the extraction would work well tho.
