New wet saw...

[cam_low]

Im looking to buy a bigger wet saw, maybe sell the 9p, upgrade to the 10m...

Before I do, is there anything you have to recommend or as a lot of people seem to be doing now, just using a grinder/ats blade ?

I was tempted by the raimondi zoe but I think its a bit overkill, my jobs seem to be coming in at a max of 60x60 and more and more people in the domestic middle class houses avoiding stone.

cheers folks

Sorry can't rec anything , was always after a Sig 10M myself.

I use a grinder with scribing on L cuts on house bashing these days as 99% there is no skirting.

I'm in a similar boat tbh , I've yet to find a decent replacement in terms of portability , handling , cutting ability , for my Clipper SMS 202 . I've cut just about everything on it , from inch thick stone to mosaic , can't fault it. In fact I've just this weekend made a new bracket ( its 3rd ) to hold the water spray guard for it. It's rusty paint peeling but has never let me down.

I was doing 1000 x 600 x 25 limestone about a year ago which I borrowed a 10m for and in the end it was easier with a grinder. Nearly bought a 10M for that job , fell through in the end , which in hindsight was good as I wouldnt have used it since.

Let me know what you go for in the end as I'm still on the look myself.

Cheers

I like the look of the 10m they have one in decor tiles in Watford i admire it every time i am in there , its a lot of money , how much would you get for you 9P if you sold it?

Im not sure Gary to be fair, including the stand it wasn't far off a grand, I also got the better blade with mine for free thanks to Derek@sigma, circa £220 I believe. Whats the price at decor to you ?
