saw

A saw is a tool consisting of a tough blade, wire, or chain with a hard toothed edge. It is used to cut through material, very often wood though sometimes metal or stone. The cut is made by placing the toothed edge against the material and moving it forcefully forth and less forcefully back or continuously forward. This force may be applied by hand, or powered by steam, water, electricity or other power source. An abrasive saw has a powered circular blade designed to cut through metal or ceramic.

    Afternoon all, Has anyone ever used the above cutter. It can be used with a guide rail that will fit a 1200 tile which I seem to use more and more and looks to be a handy piece of kit if you have limited space to store a wet cutter. Thanks Rick
