[QUOTE="Old Mod, post: 854741"] Reason I asked was that the Rubi runs on a regular festool guide and the 1400 is around £50, which last I looked, is much cheaper than the Rubi. I don't know if it's changed but they used to come in 800 lengths. Like the festool tho, to get good dust extraction on a dry cut, the blade has to be at full depth. No good if you're trying to cut a tile out of the floor. Wet feature works well, but you're right, it's messy. What I tend to do is lay a tarp down and form a funnel toward the nearest drain. But you have great control over the water flow. Far as the blade goes, the standard used to pretty poor. But the cpc works really well. Only thing is, I've not really used it since Rubi brought out their new range of blades 12-18months ago, so it could have all changed. And of course the Rubi doesn't mitre, but I wouldn't use the feature now anyway, can't get as good as finish as you can by hand. Not even sure what the Rubi costs anymore, used to be about £300-£350 and the flex upward of £750. Yes the flex mitres,but at an extra few hundred pounds, I don't think I'd bother. I find the Rubi man enough for good quality porcelain. Shame you're not closer, I'd of lent it to you to try it out. [/QUOTE]
