Re: cutting natural stone
A wet Saw is a must for Natural stone, a few things to keep in mind are the
Motor size- needs to have enough grunt to cut up to 40mm stone
Portability- needs to be light enough for one person to get on and off the truck
capacity- what size stone will it be used for
quality- for precision cuts quality counts and makes work alot more enjoyable
Flexability- What can the saw do what attachments does it have how easy is it to get spare parts and how easy is it to service and maintain
Cost- needs to be weighed up a quality saw that is more expensive from the outset will last longer and do the job better and quicker and will pay for itself faster.
Just a few things to look for when thinking of this important purchase.
