Wheel wobble on dewalt - Tile Advice

[Chris Gibbs]

I've read about wheel wobble on the dewalt table saw but have never experienced it.... until today. I was cutting a bloody hard porcelain 1200 x600 though. The hardest tile I've ever come across.
Is this a common occurrence with the dewalt?

Could you have bent the blade forcing the tile through?
The continuous rim blade that came with my DeWalt many moons ago has never been fast on hard porcelain.

Does sound as tho you might have pushed the blade too much and heated up and bent

Easy to see if you've bent it.
Has it become a little loose on the spindle?

following cut was perfect... think it was just a hard spot on the tile, they are unbelievably hard. and for the record, I'm very gentle with my pushing

They're not Pastorelli are they?

Nice workmanship Chris, but I don't like the tile pattern

We can only put down what the customer wants... i know what you mean Lee, but to be honest they do look better in the flesh.
When the customer walks in and says "oh they're lovely aren't they"
What do we do? Nod in agreement

The size of those tiles you can't be cutting many on the DeWalt anyway!
PS I did some 600mm x 600mm of a similar pattern of a few years ago and while they didn't necessarily float my boat I could see the attraction.
