That's a novel use of dry diamond pads and a turbo cup wheel.

Even if the machine is sensible money, the cost of consumables might mount up there.

I thought that the mitring would have been better with a diamond wheel but for the other it should be ok if thats what you are into!

Cutting/chamfering edges kills diamond pads. That's what profilers and vanity blades are for.

It would be fine on natural stone or concrete, but porcelain will give the consumables a very short lifespan.

I polished the edge of a polished porcelain tile a couple of weeks back and it shredded one of my pads. Like Alan says, a very expensive way of mitring, especially if you've got a couple of dozen to do.

Silicone carbide pads work very nicely on Porcelain Bri. They also don't break the bank if you happen to shred one.

looks solid and the grinder is a good choice. but why they didn´t add the 90degree sanding? and why not suitable for a usual wet grinder? there are no wet grinders available from bosch. how much is that tool?

I dont know about the price or whether it comes with the grinder. I just saw it when looking through Youtube
