Fragging with a wet tile saw (and diamond bandsaw).

[whatcaneyedo]

I just tried out the bandsaw for the first time this evening by cutting a duncan and an open brain. Eventually I'll try it on my acans and some other 'brains'.

What I liked:
1. Cutting is nice and smooth and calm, not like with a rotary tool or wet tile saw where theres lots of noise and coral goo flying everywhere (like the dude with the lawnmower and the room full of zombies in Dead Alive... What? No one has ever seen that movie? You suck ).
2. My fingers feel safe.
3. Cleanup is easy because the unit is mostly plastic its safe to splash it with lots of fresh water to get the gunk out.

What I didnt like:
1. I dont really like the water lubricator system of the saw. When I assembled it I couldnt get the provided hose to fit so I had to use some of my own flexible airline hose.
2. The mechanism that restricts water flow to the blade kind of came loose and I had to glue it back in...
3. Cutting is slower than with a wet tile saw, it took me quite a long time to get through the hard lower skeleton of the open brain.
