Out of those 2 i would opt for the Plasplugs. The Clarke type are very common and you could get a similar model even cheaper but they dont seem to last. Spot welds holding the table on can break loose and if i remember rightly the motor is lacking in power, also noisy. They may have changed over the years but i doubt it. Why not push the boat out a little and get something like this Rubi Electric Tile Cutters (Wet Tile Saws) | ||
