Which wet cutter to buy? - TilersForums.com

[Fitwidge]

I’ve got a Rubi nd200 and also got a variable speed grinder. I’m using my grinder more than my wet saw

Which variable grinder ?

How do you find the that grinder? Works well for cutting and polishing edges?

With the right blade I was cutting 12mm thick marble, and also using a bullnose attachment as well as polishing pads to clean the edges up

Brilliant. I have a cordless grinder. I’m thinking about getting a variable one to use for polishing. Do variable speed grinders offer any advantage when cutting? Do diffent tiles cut better at different speeds? What are the speed settings on that bosch?

The Rubi ND200 is the basic model for a professional tiler, the ND180 more for DIY

I had an nd 200 and then got nd 180 the proper one not bl or anything like that because I had a bridge saw for larger tiles

Have you ever tried the little Bricollina? Best small wet saw for around the same money as the nd180 and the cleanest of them all imo

Off top my head I think it’s around 3,00-1100. Comes in handy when polishing and cleaning cuts. I was using different blades at different speeds to get good cuts on the marble.

Rubi nd200 for me. Great value for money. Does all I need it to

And a cordless grinder too.

Forgot to say, @whitebeam gave me a brilliant tip about nd200 a while back, use a 9 inch paint tray instead of the tray Rubi supplies and it will leave the shallow end sticking out a bit to make it quick and easy to refill and a lot less messy
