This top-of-the-line 10-inch diamond blade wet saw produces precise, chip-free cuts on all tile, ceramic, marble, and slate. The 115-volt motor develops a peak 1-1/2 horsepower. Better yet, working with big tile is a breeze: this unit cuts a 20-inch tile lengthwise and a 14-inch tile diagonally. The locking blade shaft makes blade-changing a snap. A fully integrated, precision guide bar guarantees smooth travel, while the 10-inch blade gets you a 3-3/4-inch maximum depth of cut, and the professionally engineered high-torque AC 12.8 GE motor and Micro-V belt drive make sure this unit is going to last. The heavy-duty stand is sturdy and dependable, too. In short, this is a beautiful saw package for the exacting professional.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

5.0 out of 5 stars "Outstanding Tile Saw", June 29, 2001

This review is from: MK Diamond 158189-AMZ MK-100 10-Inch 1-1/2HP Tile Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)

The MK-100 10" 1 1/2HP Tile Saw is an excellant saw for the money. I researched many different brands and sizes of Tile saws. I wanted one that could cut a variety of different types of tile and the ability to diaginaly cut twelve inches. I talked with an MK service rep and he said the MK 100, their newest saw, was basically the same saw as the 101. It does have a different motor and there is no cover over the slide assembly. The MK-100 will cut 12" floor tile in about three seconds. The saw sounds the same as the 101, basically the same machine, just two or three hundred dollars less expensive. The saw comes with a very good instruction booklet and everything needed to cut tile. The Diamond blade could be better, but you can easily replace it when it becomes dull.

I highly recommend this versatile saw to anyone that wants a great saw , at a great price.

The tool does a lot of work steady will cut the larger tiles. Not as noisy as some of the smaller machines. Needs some space to use and is a little heavy for one guy to move around well.

This review is from: MK Diamond 158189-AMZ MK-100 10-Inch 1-1/2HP Tile Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)

The saw worked great cutting the 1/2" thick slate tiles that I was using. Cut the tiles like butter. It was easy to assembly right out of the box. Nothing complicated about putting it together. It is a little too heavy to be moving around by yourself. So I attached it to a hand truck to get it in and out of my garage. You definetly want to cut tile outside. There's always a mist of water coming off the blade. The hot dog blade that came with it worked fine too. I put the water pump in a separate bucket of clean water. I don't think the pump would hold up for long putting it in the plastic tub under the saw. The water off the blade creates a pretty thick slurry that would be hard to pump. The only problem I had was I didn't get the cutting kit that was promised with the order. After a call to Amazon it arrived 7 days later. Very pleased with the saw and it will last for generations in the family.
