For a small job of putting marble on the floor of a smallish bathroom I got one of the $88 wet saws at Lowe's. It did an okay job, but I could see micro-chips along the cut lines as I was cutting....nothing anyone could notice without getting on hands and knees though.
Is this just a fact of life when cutting polished stone, or can you make better cuts using a better blade?
I am about to embark on a much larger project on a different bathroom (marble tile counter, travertine shower, tub skirt & surround and wainscotting, slate floor and am willing to get a better blade (or even a better saw if that's necessary) to help make the job go faster and smoother with potentially better cuts.
What do you think?
