New tiler buying a wet saw. Budget!!

[westcoast tiler]

The Dewalt is a big machine and good for slate, marble etc.
it takes up a lot of room in your van but I think it is good
value for money because it has a sliding table and it can
be use as a chop saw whitch is good for taking complete
holes out out of tiles eg elec sockets if using large tiles
in kitchens.

where as a lot of the big wet cutters can only run and
not chop.

hope to be of help

got a spare dw 200 (the one without the legs) it's a 240v so I don't use it now, if you're up in lakes at all for £100 it's yours!

Good price Doug:santa_cheesy:

 

[doug boardley]

got it when I was mainly doing domestic work where 240v isn't a problem, with hindsight I should have got my 110v and a transformer first!

Doug, I may well have it. Will PM you later this evening. Thanks!

Hello All,
I had a small 'plasplug' wet cutter and my real moan was measurements were poor,also adjustment bar clips were weak. I replaced it due to frustration!!!!
Bought a 'Rexon' TC1150AL , 720watt good power and clean cut. I know it's a cheapy but VERY functional. Good extention table, to both sides, great adjust scale /bar.
Had it couple of years ,done a fair few jobs with it.
Screwfix do them for about£56 - 58 , if you break it Screwfix change it!! can't be TOO bad!
GOOD LUCK
Johnnyp
