Default Re: Makita 12v Cordless Wet Cutter:Any Good?

I dont use mine instead of a table saw I use mine as it is supposed to be for small cuts not using it all day. If I have a few cuts to be made I use this instead of setting up wet saw saves hrs.

So agree if you are thinking this will be instead of a wet table saw think again buy a table saw.

You had me going there for a bit highlander, was gonna say there is no way one of these makitas is a substitute for a table cutter, the odd little cut yes, no way can you cut granite, marble lenght after leght with one of these, i used mine for the same purpose, the odd small cut to reduce the curve so as to get your nippers snapping, good for plunge cuts but so is the table saw, only benefit is small jobs on site in my opinion where you cannot get the big gear going

I've had one for the last 18 months now and I find it invaluable, great for small cuts, plunge cuts and general use. However, porcelain is a challange.......would recommend purely as it is portable and easy to use especially when there is no power on site. Downside is it's not ideal for large cuts or hard tiles so the table cutter comes out in those circumstances. Other than that I am still loving it.
