Brilliant. Maybe before setting the slab width you can do a dry pass, then stack items for the bucket to come to rest on. You wouldn't have to catch it at the end and may be able to finagle it a bit where you finish the last few millimeters by hand feed. Very elegant and simple solution. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and I believe that would work very well, I'm going to give it a shot this weekend! It's been awhile since I've played with the saw. I was telling the last commenter, I didn't realize I made this video public but now I'm glad I did! 🤣 It was meant for my kids to see!
Thanks. This is a fantastic idea. I don't have a sliding table tilesaw yet, but if I run across a used one I'm making one of these. I'm getting older, and want to protect my hands from vibration injury. If I can slab rocks with this, I can save some wear and tear on my hands.
This is so cool James. Maybe carefully removing a counterweight at a time as the resistance decreases toward the end of the cut, as in increasing in the beginning. Also figure where the bucket will be in revelation as the cuts finishes and place a platform a inch or so below to catch the bucket or more simply, adjust the cord to fit the shop floor. I'm going to build this. Thanks.
Im sorry for giving you a dislike but you have a road saw here. Entirely different beast. Meant for cutting asphalt, pavement, concrete and other surfaces
Cactus man I'm not sure what your saying, this is a tabletop tile saw not a road saw. I work in concrete construction and can assure you this is not a concrete pavement saw.
