A good saw for your DIY project
Submitted on 03/10/2010
I thought this saw would cut a little deeper like other bridge saws, but it can only cut 1-1/2" deep, which is fine for tiles but not so much for folks with 2-1/4" bricks.
The wheels are misplaced and don't work very well.
The legs, fold down and are anchored in place by angle brackets which attach over little buttons. They're difficult to get on and off, and even worse, when transporting the saw, the brackets hang down and make it difficult to lower the saw onto the ground.
In order to unfold the legs, you have to rest the saw on its side, however there is no rubber bumper to prevent the weight of the saw from doing damage to the stuff on its side. Also, once the leg is extended, you have to pivot the weight of the entire saw on the two extended legs, and I'm positive that it's not going to survive this for too many uses.
The water pump is also an issue, tapping it doesn't even restart it sometimes. I have to disassemble the thing while the saw is running, and push on the pump's internal paddles like I'm priming a flywheel. Considering that it's only a 60gph fountain pump, you might be able to find a $10 submersible pump to replace this one.
All in all, the saw, did it's job, I'm just not sure how long this will last. Since you're probably not as desperate as I was to find an inexpensive masonry saw, I'd recommend that you invest a little more money in a more ruggedly built, deeper cutting tile saw.69 of 131 Found this review helpful
