Hi everyone
This is going to sound like a moronic question I know.
I was rooting out all my DIY tiling stuff ready for a project (sounds rather grand - I am doing a bit of tiling in the bathroom!) and found a couple of wet cutter blades I had previously replaced. Thing is how do you know when they need replacing?
It is a while since I used it and it may be that the cutters were replaced because they were not doing any cutting as such, although that job was porcelain floor tiles.
The thickened strip round the edge obviously is the bit that does the business and this gets thinner as it wears. But when is it necessary to bin it?
I see Dave sells a rubi ceramic thing for rejuvenating the blade and it made me think could I perk these two up and carry on using them a bit longer?
I guess when the diamond strip gets down to the steel edge of the circular blade itself it wouldn't cut on the actual edge of the blade - but the sides would still have a fair bit of material left on them.
What do you think grateful for any thoughts for a very occasional diy tiler.
