You explained that very well Shannon. I've been thinking hard about retiling my two bathrooms and I think you've made up my mind. Thanks Shannon, this was a very helpful video.
That's a nice saw. The $50 "Mastercrap" tile saw I did my basement with was brutal. Can't beat the speed and ease of use that a manual tile cutter brings.
From a tile guy for the past 17 years I do like watching your video's on some of the other things I don't generally deal with. Dewalt is probably the best overall all saw but expensive and I've used it for many years until the motor finally gave out. I looked at the saw you're using but it still sprays and drips to much water for my liking. Anyway...good job explaining how these saws work and the proper way to use them. I appreciate that. Keep up the good work and look forward to more videos as I start remodeling my own house for a change.
Nice video, completed two of my baths with a 50 dollar saw, doable but this is a nice saw! Nothing like not having to get spayed in the the face doing a full 12" cut. :) Thanks...
Well it was one of the Home Depot specials 5 or 6 inch blade, in order to do a full sheet you have to remove the guard hence sprayed in the face... :) I knew what I was getting into so it was no surprise and it got me through two baths in the house. Would have been nice to have a nice one at hand but was not worth the expense.
I would love to have a tile cutter like that. The little table one I have takes much longer and often leaves jagged cuts. Now I'm contemplating buying one of these for my bathroom reno since I've got 2' X 2' tiles. Im doing the floors and walls in an 11' X 11' room. I dread it with the tiny table saw. Thanks Shannon.
If the table isn't stable you'll get a bad edge. If you don't have enough water on the tile that will also cause the blade to wander. If you push the tile through too fast you'll get an uneven edge. If the blade isn't a continuous diamond blade (and it's a notched blade) you'll get rough edges. You can get good results even with a really cheap saw as long as you're doing everything else right.
@@icecap It went well and looks good. The tiles are still looking brand new even though it’s been 5 years since installation. It was painful cutting them with the portable saw though.
Wet tile saws can be messy. If the temperatures outside are sub-zero and you don't have an indoor space to cut tiles, can an anti-freeze such as alcohol or automotive glycol be added to the water to prevent freezing between cuts? It would stop the water from freezing, but could it damage the seals or components of the pump?
I never cut tiles like this, I use the saw it the up position and repeatedly score the tile going deeper each time, if you do a full cut at once especially on a long cut ceramic tile it will deflect the blade towards the end of the cut
dumb question (I'm used to work with wood), you put your hands where there is a 'don't put your hands here' sticker, is this safe? with a wood radial saw the wood can get stuck on the blade and pull your hands with it into the blade, this cannot happen here?
We had our bathroom done with ceramic tiles. Where the tiles are cut along the outer vertical aluminum trim piece, every single cut tile is chipped. Not only chipped but not cut square. We paid a couple handymen to do it who apparently had experience. However now we see the finished product. The installers are gone. We need to know if chipped tiles is normal and unavoidable ? Yes they used a wet saw. I did not inspect the blade. We
Thanks for a great video. I am doing a backslash in my kitchen using glass and glass mosaic tiles. I've seen youtube videos using a double sticky sided adhesive material instead of mastic. I have used that in the past with a non glass mosaic and it worked great; no problem so far and the install is about 3 yrs old. What are your thoughts on this for glass mosaic tile. The surface is a bit rough so should I use a cement backer board or just try to smooth surface?
I noticed you used the same blade to cut the ceramic/porcelain as you did the glass. I was under the impression you should use a specific diamond blade for glass. Can I use the same blade that comes with the saw for both materials?
I'm using a very similar DeWalt to cut brick veneers, but I've been having a problem with the blade grabbing and shooting the tile forward. The 1st/bottom row needs 3/4" off. Since I'm cutting them lengthwise there's not really a safe way to hold them and still keep my fingers... Any advice?
Nice video. I have one safety recommendation, and it probably pretty obvious, but always watch where your fingers are in relation to the blade. I just about lost the tip of a finger on a wet tile saw because I was being complacent.
ive got a rigid model a bit smaller then yours its an 8in and i wish it had that nice water catch at the end, mine pisses water everywhere and sprays a bit behind it too.
thank you very much. will be looking into renting one from either lowes/home depot. for some reason i originally got a tile nipper and scoring tool but i think i may need the big guns, thanks again!
Ridgid 10" tile saw, can be bought at Home Depot for about $800. Ridgid also makes smaller models which are more appropriate for DIYers, like an 8" tile saw which I think is about $500 and is also sold at HD.
that saw would of been so much better if they improved on the 4090. the pump is not big enough to overcome the head pressure to the blade. they took away the variable speed motor and cleaning nozzle. the hose is of poor quality and the wate pumps have failed. the bearings are known to fail and cause blade wobble. the one I got wobbled straight out of the box. its also not supported very well by ridgid from what I hear. and they still sell this one even though the 4092 is out. so consumers unwittingly buy an inferior product thats just wrong

Thanks for making it easy for a beginner.
Dude, you rock. Your videos are awesome! I've pretty much renovated my whole home without any experience just by watching your videos

Go at it now Guns! Good luck

Ya snap cutters are quicker and no mess if all you have are straight cuts.
f you

Thanks Cloyd, good luck finding a new saw
Thanks Shannon, I've been wanting to put mosaic backsplash up, this gives me the confidence to do it.
Glad it helped.
Thank you so much for the great tutorial. It was super easy to follow and with perfect detail.

Your welcome.
Thank you for your comments Maxid1. Those are some things that I shall check. I'm getting ready to tile within the next 2 to 3 weeks.
@@ds99 how did the tile job go?

Awesome video dude, I've always watched this on TV and have never done it, it's cool to see you show that here. And Congratz on 200k subs!
thank you
love all your helpful videos
Where do you pour the water into before using this saw?
This is the Ridgid model #4092 wet saw with stand that I will be purchasing tomorrow!
yes ,it is a nice saw!
looks more like the #R4091
dumb question (I'm used to work with wood), you put your hands where there is a 'don't put your hands here' sticker, is this safe? with a wood radial saw the wood can get stuck on the blade and pull your hands with it into the blade, this cannot happen here?
You're the best Shannon, thanks so much as always!
Are you putting water inside the table?
There is a reservoir with a pump that pumps water to the blade, the water drains to the pan and then back to the reservoir to recycle.

Honestly very small chips is pretty normal unfortunately and some tiles are worse than others.
Nice saw

I have never tried the sticky mats. Smooth the wall and prime and you should be ok I think.
I noticed you used the same blade to cut the ceramic/porcelain as you did the glass. I was under the impression you should use a specific diamond blade for glass. Can I use the same blade that comes with the saw for both materials?
Yes there is one. When the glass tiles are mixed with ceramics like these tiles where I stick with the ceramic blade
Great video. Thanks for posting!
you're welcome

The bricks need to be held down. If your fingers are to close to blade then maybe you can use a clamp or stick to hold them down?
Awesome video! Love your accent too, ay.🙂
Can it do strt cuts on mirror glass tiles?
Nice video. I have one safety recommendation, and it probably pretty obvious, but always watch where your fingers are in relation to the blade. I just about lost the tip of a finger on a wet tile saw because I was being complacent.
With any saw that should be on your mind.
Alex Short I sure hope that's pretty obvious.
How do you unlock it. I can't raise ut up. Start with the basics
2:30 mark. twist knob on left side of head
ive got a rigid model a bit smaller then yours its an 8in and i wish it had that nice water catch at the end, mine pisses water everywhere and sprays a bit behind it too.
ya they can get messy.
you should get the new 10 inch ridgid tile saw 4092 awesome saw
kobalt nigga
Nice video 👍🏼, anyway you could confirm or deny if that saw is the Lackmond Beast?
Deny...This is a Ridgid saw
I am looking for a way to cut HDPE sheets without melting them. Can anyone tell me if a wet saw could work for that?
I want to bay that one , do you want to send me the link for this wet saw? Thanks 👍🙏
amzn.to/3IRMl7K
Which one is the best the wet saw to recommend me 🙂
what's the name of the saw that your using? for I can purchase one for myself
It is made by Ridgid.
How can you do angle- cut?
can you cut a mosaic tile piece with metal tiles too with this type of saw? (its a glass and metal mosaic)
yes, the metal is usually just a thin piece of aluminum.
thank you very much. will be looking into renting one from either lowes/home depot. for some reason i originally got a tile nipper and scoring tool but i think i may need the big guns, thanks again!
I was trying to avoid buying a saw, but the nippers I got to cut around the plumbing just broke the whole tile into pieces.
@@TPoPArt You're supposed to only take very small bites with nippers, like no more than a 1/4" at a time.
@@mrgrey361 I ended up getting a grinder for those things. It still wasn't easy, but I got better with practice.
Show me how and where you hook water to saw
Most of theses use a water tank and a small submersible pump that sits in the tank and is hooked to a hose on the saw.
i think this guy is pretty ok
5:34 when he first curs a tile! The rest of the time he is yapping away
The only issue is that I have tinnitus and that shit gets really annoying with loud sound
THANK YOU!!!!!!
No, THANK YOU!!!!! LOl ,Your welcome
what type of saw is this?
Ridgid 10" tile saw, can be bought at Home Depot for about $800. Ridgid also makes smaller models which are more appropriate for DIYers, like an 8" tile saw which I think is about $500 and is also sold at HD.
Can it cut 30 by 30 tile
HMM, I'm not sure it would be able to do that? I believe 28" is the max on this saw. Double check the specs.
that saw would of been so much better if they improved on the 4090. the pump is not big enough to overcome the head pressure to the blade. they took away the variable speed motor and cleaning nozzle. the hose is of poor quality and the wate pumps have failed. the bearings are known to fail and cause blade wobble. the one I got wobbled straight out of the box. its also not supported very well by ridgid from what I hear. and they still sell this one even though the 4092 is out. so consumers unwittingly buy an inferior product thats just wrong
What model saw was that?
Hmm I think it was R4091, it is made by Ridgid
Why do you always tape out the brand of the power tool?
we are not sponsored by any of them.
you forgot the tape the cabinet logo behind the compressor. also might wanna use tape for the blade logo marker didnt work to well.
Missed some!
wow cut it like it's butter
Look ma. No fingers.
