Hand Held Tile Saw

I have the Ryobi 18V ONE+ Tile Saw, P580 for the same reason. It has a water bottle for wet use, which I usually use. They are only $29.50 at home Depot. I, also, rent mine out often when a local tile worker has a small job or a repair job to do. I have no connection with Home Depot, by the way

The Ryobi looks like a great unit, but the draw back is I do not have any of the battery tools from Ryobi. Makita made a cordless version I would be in good shape. But as a DIY – I am not using a saw like this to make a living, but to have on hand for a variety of projects. I think corded is the way to go for my goals. That is why I am looking at the 3 models

I would go with any of the wet versions if you feel a need. I have a cheap Workforce that is very similiar to the Dewalt I picked up at HD on clearance years ago. The major difference in using a stationary wet saw and a handheld is of course the quality of cut. There will be alot more chip out with the handheld. If you can bury these cuts that’s fine, if not….ugliness. I haven’t used my handheld in years for any tile cutting. Mainly use it for cement board. I do all my cuts on the wet saw.

I agree with GaryL, the wet is the way to go. My Ryobi is a wet hand held and came with one battery and charger. I have used it on a couple of half day jobs and the battery was still strong after each. As I had planned the jobs, I or my worker was cutting pretty steady for 2 1/2 or 3 hours while the other placing and or measuring. Normally for that length of a job, we take the table tile saw, but in both cases, the customers requested changes after we arrived. I am becoming more and more impressed with battery tools these days. As I maintain my own batteries, if one goes bad, I fix it, but I may have only one or two go bad a year. Not bad considering I rent most of these tools out as well. The only problem I had with the ryobi is one rental lost, broke or what ever the water bottle. I just ordered one from eRplacement parts.

Garbage. Moderators need to be more careful.
