Hi There
Does anyone know of any deceant Electric hand held tile saws not the small makita one but something with a bit of power in it?

I currently use a grinder with expensive diamond disk but would like something hand held that I can use inside without worrying about creating a load of dust.

Thanks

Expensive but its the tool
Makita 4101RH 125mm Stone Cutter 110 V :: TOOLSTOP
I believe trade tiler can get these for you

Cheers, that looks the kit, can use it inside and its hand held, handier for setting up and think I get better control of my cuts when useing hand held cutter, it need a thinner blade for tiles than stone id imagine.

Anyone come accross the Felker hand held saws, seen them on american sites cant find them for sale here?

Felker is the USA branding name for Husqvarna mate, try searching for Husqvarna instead you may have more luck

It isnt a wet saw.

Yah but thought it might have a water feed pipe. Ive seen one somewere that water can be used to keep blade cool and dust down but its still hand held

The Makita 4101RH as posted by Neil is what you need. Its 110v with water feed system and in line RCD

I use it all the time inside for my job By the way Dave at Trade Tiler does a good deal on this saw That's where I got mine anyway

Kev do you have to attach a pump and water bucket to the saw or how is water drawn in?
I take it you carry the cutting out over a tray to catch the water?
It should be handier and tidier than a wet saw spraying everywhere.

Slightly different mate. I made a water feed out of a garden spray pump it took me about an hour and saved me about £50. I have a hand polisher as well from makita with water feed both feeds are controlled with a tap on the machine. Try and remember water doesn't bother me because I always have a wet vac on site. But yes you could easily adapt a tray for it What i will say is I use mine for large grout removal jobs as well so it has two uses and naturally a wet cutter couldn't do grout removal but the saw does both. I suppose what i am trying to say is the Makita is a lot of money and you need to get use out of it. Bear in mind the same money will buy a top quality portable wet saw as well.

PS I forgot to say don't forget you have to buy/make a water feed about £20 and you also need a110v transformer so you need to calculate those costs in as well
