    Default What Bridge Saw

    Hi All,

    I am thinking of buying a bridge saw but have no idea which one to buy. I dont want to spend £600+ on a Rubi, im looking more in the £150 - £250 range.

    Does anyone recommend any bridge saws around this price?

    I saw the Topps one, and used one awhile ago and that seems pretty good, but then saw some posts on here saying not to buy it as its a poor bit of kit.

    Thanks
    Paul

    are you just starting out?
    do you really need a bridge saw?
    i wouldn't personnaly go to the expense if you can get away with using a wet saw such as the plasplugs mastertiler!

    Have heard a few guys who use them are happy with them but Plasplugs are going down the pan, if there any problems with it change it as soon as possible
