Question: How stable and accurate is the rip fence on this saw?  I want to cut many 4x8 tiles from 8x12 tiles.
Document: I wanted the cuts as straight and aligned as possible, so the cut edges will line up nicely to the wood I will use as outside molding without any gaps. It would have been nice to have a larger table that could accommodate these cuts. I taped the line to cut, and freehand-cut the short side - carefully staying right on the tape line, and was able to get a nearly-perfect straight cut of 4 3/4&#34;The double-fastener rip fence is a bit of a chore to set, because you have to align and fasten each end separately - but once fastened it is extremely stable and will not move for repeated cuts.
My current DIY job around the house was to replace a dozen or so cracked floor tiles. Renting a saw would put me in a time crunch as extracting the old tiles is the time consuming part. This saw was my answer as I could spread out the task over a couple of weekends. The blade runs true and makes a nice clean cut on the 12"x12" tiles I'm working with. I'm assuming it takes a little longer to secure the adjustable rip fence compared to higher priced saws but again, I can work at my own pace.
Not anywhere near as powerful or accurate as bigger more expensive saws. However, it is fantastic if you just need something for a small job and rental is a hassle you want to avoid. Kind of like harbor freight tools, get it for one job and every job it completes after that is just gravy. Mine tackled the bathroom remodel beautifully except for the occasional bog down on the blade and I think it will last through a kitchen remodel. At least I hope it will.The only real con is the fence is aggravating, but to be expected for the price.
I'm a novice when it comes to cutting tile and was very leery about purchasing this saw based on the negative reviews but did not want to invest big bucks for one project. I cut 12 x 12 porcelain floor tiles for a bathroom remodel and was completely 100% satisfied. So far I've made 22 cuts and here are my comments:1. Splattering - Minor, not a big deal. Keep the blade guard down, wear some old duds and safety glasses. Hey, it's a tile saw.2. Fence alignment - No problem.
Obviously, this saw isn't made for high volume, continuous work, but for a project at home it did fine. To have this saw available rather than renting a commercial grade one allowed me to tackle a tile floor, counter back splash and a split marble fireplace hearth over the course of a week. It cut very well. The rip fence is not of much value, but the blade held up and cut through some stone, glass and tile that required a wet saw. I had the saw available when I wanted it at the price of renting one for a day.
For the money, I thought this saw did a great job. Some people whine about the water tray, etc., but really, what do you expect from something in this price range. The cuts were very nice, the fence guide was fairly accurate (use the measurement lines), and the blade stayed good. I was cutting 1' square with multi 1/2" tiles, glass and ceramic mix. Obviously, some of the glass chipped when having 1/8" trimmed off a 1/2'' tile.
Also, the original blade is still cutting like new and I have cut many tiles. I would definitely recommend this for anyone that is doing a job of this size and doesn't need a more expensive or larger saw. * I will also note that I am using 12&#34; x 24&#34; tiles which means I have had a LOT of cutting to do...
I used this saw to cut the tile (12" X 12") for my bathroom floor (~60 sq ft.). I am ultimately satisfied with the floor and could not have done it without the saw, but I did have a lot of frustration and clean up (details below). Would I use it again? Yes. But I would recommend spending a little more money to get a saw that addresses some of the frustration I (and others) experienced.THE FENCE IS HARD TO USE-You need to tighten both wing nuts and you need to pay special attention to ensure it is actually straight.-The fence will actually wobble in and out, affecting the width of the cut-The edge will be dinged up after a few cuts making it harder to get the tile through straight.In summary, the fence is designed to give you confidence about cutting straight but because it is hard to use and ineffective, it is actually much faster and (with a steady hand) more accurate to draw a perfectly straight line on the tile first then cut without the fence at all.
Bought for a few tile projects of my own and helping others. With included blade, does a great job at cutting ceramic 6" tiles. With a QEP 7" glass-cutting blade also purchased here on Amazon, this saw did a fantastic job cutting 1" mosaic tiles for a kitchen back splash.Yes the fence is secured by a fastener at each end of the table, but it let me make consistently accurate cuts.Very satisfied with this product, especially at $81 minus the Amazon $15 SKIL rebate.
We really didn't want to buy a expensive tile saw since we don't have many projects we'd use it for and one day rentals can range $50-$80.We did our research and read plenty of reviews of this little saw and decided to take a chance on it. We are SO glad we did!First of all this saw is very easy to assemble. My husband had it put together and ready to go within 10 minutes. Secondly it is extremly easy to operate and make clean precise cuts.The only downside with this saw is that the table is fairly small and we were working with 6 x 24 panels of stackstone (aka ledgestone) so there was some manuvering/adjusting the stone as it went through the saw.
Answer: yes
