- Northern Industrial Wet Tile Saw - 7in. Blade Size Reviews
I would recommend it if cost is the primary consideration I found the northern Industrial 7" tile saw to do the cutting of ceramic tile for my kitchen countertop very satisfactory.
Wear old clothes that you don't mind having to throw away. * Mess. Cons:. It cuts slowly anyway so it's easy to guide your tile through it. The saw still worked perfectly. Granted I've never used a wet tile saw before, this is what I thought of it. * Fence and diagonal jig. * Shipping.
First I tried using it but I had an extremely hard time aligning it and getting it perfectly parallel to the blade and it still didn't turn out right. It's small and portable enough to haul back in the house and out on the deck when you need to cut something. My tile project turned out the way I wanted it to. This eliminates a motorized electric pump. It got the job done. No other comments on performance needed. Keeping the tile guard on top keeps the splashing to the minimum, but definitely expect to have dusty dirty water thrown at you.
The box was shipped without being put in another shipping box. Unfortunately for me, this meant that I had to fill up the pan with the hose after every 5 passes or so. It was dented, mauled, torn, and everything. * Size. Cheapest wet tile saw I've seen out there. I just ended up removing it altogether.
There were a few bent metal pieces, but nothing too bad. Just make your cuts freehand and it will turn out much better because you have more control over your cutting. Infinitely times better than renting one. cuts was worthless as well. It cut the tiles the way I wanted it to. There is no padding whatsoever, it was just placed in a box meant to be bought at a store. Furthermore, the jig it comes with to make 45 deg.
That being said, the box it comes in was *not* meant for shipping. * The PRICE. Pros:. Very cheap and flimsy. Bottomline:. Also, I couldn't find a way to remove the pan to empty and clean it out.
If you just buy this average consumer grade tile saw, you can take your sweet time knowing you own it already. Yes, it *will* get you wet, especially when the water pan is full. Plus you have to mess with the hassle of hauling one and returning it and trying to finish your job as soon as possible so you minimize the rental fee. Highly recommended for your tiling needs. It's the same price you pay for just one day of renting one.
Despite its flaws, it has literally saved me hundreds of dollars by buying this cheap little guy than renting a bigger and better one for a week or more. * Water pan. I bought this saw because it's much, much cheaper than to rent one from my local hardware store. * Performance. I just ended up tilting the whole unit over.
When I found it at my doorstep, it literally looked like the UPS guy used it as a soccer ball. One reason why this is so cheap compared to those $200+ saws is that it uses a water reservoir that the blade dips into upon every spin.
I haven't used it yet but it appears to be a well built wet saw. Delivery of the saw was prompt.
I purchased a Northern Industrial Wet Tile saw from Amazon.com and used it to cut tiles for my kitchen backsplash. I recommend this product for do-it-yourself projects. For the low purchase price the product perfomed reasonably well. The item was delivered on time and was easy to work with.
