I'm just wondering why the wet sponge and grinder when there's water fed hand saws on the market and the rubi has a rail system and fits the festool rail also

Because Kyle, who wants to spend a fortune on a water fed system and have to mess about running pipes all over and have the inconvenience of that, when you can just use a wet sponge with great results

:) Yep can just see me using that delicate piece of equipment on a thin tile. :thumbsup: Haha

Typically, actual wet saws won't cut thin tile, it destroys the edges, their operating speed is too slow.

I'd be really interested to see a Porcel-thin cut on a Sigma 10m9 or a Raimondi GS86.
Both top quality wet saws - high speed and zero wobble.
