Ok! I think dewalt are saying it will only cut 610mm max cut when cutting at max depth which is 95mm.
will soon find out as mine is now on order from the factory:hurray:
regards Rik
 
Hi Guys mine arrived to day at 5.00pm so pick it up on the way Home:hurray:
Put it together and tested a few cuts on natural 2cm thick onyx 60x40 and 1.5cm thick Granite 60x40 and a couple of 50x50 grade 5 Porcelain and cut a dream!:thumbsup:
But at 45 degrees it chips quite a bit when trying to do external cuts and yes I tried tiles up side down as well, and as I do a lot of external mitres with natural stone has anyone had the same problem and solved it with a blade change and if so what Blade do you use.
Cheers Rikcardo

Got any ideas????
 
Give me a chance Merlecollins, he only posted 8 mins ago :lol:


Was it on all materials?

If you intend on doing a lot of mitres I suggest using a 180mm blade as it flexes less because of the smaller distance from the flanges. Having said that I have achieved acceptable results with the standard blade.
 
I use the Montolit DNA blade.. and it is chip free what ever angle you cut at..:thumbsup:

Also check if your cutting square.. out of square cutting can result in break out at the reverse of the cut edge.
 
No issues here with chipping. I havent used the same materials as Rikcardo but the mitres done on some highly glazed ceramics were perfect everytime. I didnt mitre through a tile though, choosing to mitre the finished edge and leave the tip of the glaze intact....if that makes sense.
I have mitred Travertine through the tile and had no problems :thumbsup:

Standard wheel still in use.
