Hi anyone got one of these and is it any good? Was thinking of purchasing from Protiler, decent price just now! Sounds a good option for me to have as haven't the room in van for large radial saws.

Yes nice, but the Marcrist one on offer at over ÂŁ100.00 cheaper just now, and I do like a bargain :)

No, no, absolutely right mate!
I don't actually know anyone with the marcrist.
Do you use the Rubi guide rails or there is Bosch ones which are a lot cheaper? Not a tool I am going to set up and use everyday day but handy to have when customer surprises me with tiles the size of the side of a shed :(

Ye I have one. Brilliant. Mitres unlike the rubi. I'm close to you if you want to check it out before you buy.
Yes it does seem a good bit of kit and protiler offering it with 2 blades, what kind of rails do you use with it? The Bosch ones look pretty good?

Only runs on the bosch rails. Due to a square slot.

Hi Gary. I found if you pushed it to hard and fast it did chip. Take it slow with good water flow and it cuts clean and straight. Used it recently again on aparici glass topped no problems. I keep meaning to get a bore reducer and try and get a viper blade or similar on it. To try dry cutting.

Cheers Andy I need to buy a new rail as my one has a chewed up edge I was thinking it was the blade to be honest as I have had trouble with the marcrist said blades in the past I will see if I can get something else to fit it

Morning Gary, do you know which blade you have in the machine? and when you say cut into the rail did it hit the metal or just the rubber? :)
