    Default Advice on new wet saw

    Just wondering before I buy a big wet saw which one the lads on here like the most. I've been using the dewalt push bed one and seems a good one to me as I have a pull one on hire before that and wasn't great .
    e
    The dewalt one is around 800 pound , is there one as good a bit cheaper or can I get this anywhere with a good deal.
    Cheers Thanks

    My new dewalt has just completed it's first job and it is an awesome bit of kit! Easy to set up, cuts straight and true every time and the porcelain blade leaves a flawless cut. 5* from me.

    I still had it plugged in Daz, just used it for a couple of fiddly bits! As luck would have it I had skirting to mitre as well, so really got to find out how good it is.

    I've been boring the wife for the last 2 days telling her what it can do and how good it is! Cleaning it is a bit of a chore though!

    It took me so long to get one because I don't like parting with that much cash at once! I reckon it saved me half a day on this job so will pay for itself in a month. A great investment for anyone considering purchasing one.
