Never used a grinder to cut tiles... - TilersForums.com

I'd be really interested to see a Porcel-thin cut on a Sigma 10m9 or a Raimondi GS86.
Both top quality wet saws - high speed and zero wobble.

What's the speed of the 10m Mark?
Certainly won't cut on my DX350
I've managed it with my TC180 but that's around twice the speed and its blade dependant.

I thought you said 10m was high speed mate?
It's 2800/3400 the DX is 2800 TC 5800rpm.

It's been a couple of months now using the grinder...
And I wish I got one years ago !!
Been cutting porcelain tiles today...so much easier than messing about with the wet cutter.
Not sure how it's going to work in the winter when it's -2 And pouring down..
Only criticism is the bloody dust....got to be carefull where your cutting....make sure it's no where near the customer washing on the line....or the brand new car ..!!

Andy, I use one of these for cutting and mixing if I can't use a customer's garage or other room in the house. The explorer one, comes in a wheeled bag and is strong enough to take some abuse (and weather). 3m x 3m Pop Up Gazebos | Shop Our Explorer Pop Up Gazebo Series from £129 - https://rockawnings.co.uk/gazebos/explorer-series-pop-up-gazebos

But if you had a good wet cutter like a Dewalt you could do it inside the room.

Thought you needed a wet suit to use one of those..

Really..?
I got an nd200 and wouldn't dream of using it in a customer house...not with the amount of water that comes off it....and don't get me started on filling the bloody water tray up..!!

You can use a paint roller tray with those easy to fill

I took @whitebeam advice and got a paint tray so that it sticks out a bit so easy to refill, I must be lucky as my nd200 and briccolina are clean as a NASA lab!

Used mine every month this year, so much so I'am thinking of getting a new blade for Xmas.

You sure you're not using it upside down?

I do use grinders aswell, horses for courses and all that but will have to try and get used to not using grinders very much in the future
