Looking for a good quality but inexpensive wet cutting tile saw? I am and you can steal my idea and say it was yours. It's the MK Diamond MK-370 EXP tile saw. Priced at $329, it's the least expensive, high quality, do-it-yourselfer version of a wet cutting tile saw. You can find some cheaper tile saws at Home Depot (that's where I got my first one for $89 that I recently burned out the motor on), but for the next step up, check out the MK 370 EXP.
The Diamond MK370 will cut 18" tiles, which are all the rage these day. It can cut a 13" diagonal and can also cut a 45 degree miter for those nice tile trim pieces. The MK370 is lightweight enough to bring on a jobsite with you and also comes with it's own folding stand. Other features of the MK-370 include a variable height cutting head that allows for plunge cutting, sliding aluminum die-cast cutting table, 3/4" diameter chrome plated linear guide bar system, hinged blade guard for easy blade changes, single piece zinc-plated steel frame for rigidity, strength and durability and a MK-Safeswitch which prevents the saw from being operated when the locking key is removed.
When you purchase the MK 370 EXP tile saw, it includes a built-in submersible water pump receptacle with a removable thermoplastic water reservoir and 7" diamond blade for cutting tile. If purchased separately, the diamond blades can be quite expensive but they last a long time so you are psyched to have one included. The MK 370 EXP also includes a folding stand. Nice touch! Because of the Diamond MK370's price, I'm not even going to compare other products to this one.
