makita110v £35 quid from dave at trade tiler ,marcrist wheel the dogs bollox used it on 10 mm thick stone thru to cuttin architrive ,does everythin a wet saw does great back up :yes:
My metabo 115mm packed in a couple of weeks ago after 3 years i can't complain. had to run to the nearest tool shop,had one makita 115mm 110v and some bugger must have pulled the switch off so that was that,so bought a bosch 115mm 110v(blue),great grinder,real comfy too.
i spend so long looking at wet cutters, and it seems like you need so many different types, its just spend spend spend. i feel like i waste loads of money on tools.
but i defo dont regret spending 45 quid on a dewalt grinder. i use it with a norton aereojet disc and its so dam good. i find u waste so much time on jobs getting out and setting up the wet cutter, and most days i only do a few cuts with discs. i also hate the fact u cant see clearly with a wet cutter.
the only niggle i have with grinders is that they create loads of dust. but i find the best thing to do it cut over a large groudsheet and near two walls and put two large boards up against the wall to catch the dust. but if its just a few cuts then i do it just over a groundsheet.
i also like to play it safe and clamp the tile to a chopping board/old ply using a 5 quid b&poo clamp. that way i can hold the grinder with both hands and cut very accurantely
has anybody ever tried using a water supply pump thingy for cooling drill bits? could work a treat!? im sure its safe if you use a extension lead with two rsd cut outs like mine
