I've used an ATS blade in my Dewalt and found it good....no chipping.
It could end up very messy and left with no water in your tray very quickly, without the other 2 pieces of plastic tray

True I hadn't thought of it retaining the water for the pump more than just making less mess, I probably will just need to accept it and buy them sooner rather than later. I don't have any jobs lined up that I need it for immediately. Filter guard from the pump I will also need to get as I've spotted it's fallen off. More plastic to buy :tearsofjoy:. Can't complain too much though as it was a cheap buy

I only ever used my dewalt pump sat in a bucket of clean water. If you do that, no need for a guard and no risk of chips snagging the pump or silt clogging the tubes.

Most review videos I watched seemed to use a fresh bucket like you are doing also @impish so I'll probably go down this route also.
I seen another video of a guy using 12mm backer board to make the sliding table level for pushing bigger tiles through also, seemed to work a treat

The missing filter guard seems to be a Dewalt achilles heel, mine went missing years ago.
