 An hour with the new Skil saw. Clockwise from the Gem Silica, crap from RWA3006, lace agate from summerville, GA (Amazon.com), a heel from a piece Miket sent. Not sure what it is, Plasma and a North Ridge Plume heel. Lot of practice needed. |

If it does not melt, polish it.

Thank you. I have a small shop and am interested in the amount of spray around the guard? I have also looked at some enclosures for tile saws.

Nice little slabbettes! I think you did pretty good.
The gem silica looks yummy!

Congrats on the birthday gift...now you'll want a 10" slab saw for Christmas! (Or Easter, since it's the next holiday! LOL)

Great start! I have been looking at that same blade for my 7" How thin are they when compared to the stock blade? I have a MK hotdog blade but it is a slotted design and REALLY flings a lot more water.
