Thanks for watching! #tile #howtotile #installingtile
*Works well for a DIY home improvement job **MyBest.Tools** A little sloppy in the cut. Water reservoir is too small. Cut one 20" tile - time to refill.*
This video and price are what pushed me into getting the Ridgid. I just used the saw for a laundry platform in slate and some pieces behind my counter top/niches. I have yet to do my shower and having tried this so far...I have no doubt I have more than enough tool to get the job done..my only question is...do I have the skill to make my shower come out as well as I can picture it.
I have the 7 inch beast. I'm on my second one under warranty. After rail issues on the first. I had a bad case of blade run-out on 24 inch tile on the vertical cut, at least 1/8-3/16 of an inch. Lachmond was fantastic to deal with on the warranty claim. They said mine was a 1st gen saw and improvements had been made on table movement.
Now the 2nd saw Under Warranty has rail issues once again. All the screws on the left side rail tube have come loose after a half dozen uses. It was factory set up when I received it. All I did was check the square on the blade to the saw.
Thanks, that's good information! 👊
Locktite baby
@@ethanrudat3328 loctite don't fix warped guides
We have the larger beast wet saw and it's a really well designed saw. The gravity stand lets me load it in the bosses lifted pickup no problem. Even the water tray can slide out to drain the tray. I'd recommend it to anyone interested in it
Yes, The gravity stand is amazing!
👊
Good vid! My rigid 8inch came with a screw cap drain plug, I install
stone for a living and after maybe 4 years of constant use, the rigid gave out, no brushes or anything would fix it, but at the cost and Weight of saw I just bought another one.
You do know ridgid provides life time warranty
@@kevink2555 yeah, but daily use saw, drive 60 miles to drop off, 60 miles to pick up, wait probably 1 wk to get back? Didn't have that luxury at the moment. Lose more $ trying to get fixed then to buy another one...
Should have compared with same blade
what I though too, but the video still very informative
As a tile contractor I have used the ridgid 7" saw for years now and never had a problem. The ridgid 7" saw I own is only for when I have multiple jobs going and only for small tiles such as subway tile or mosaic sheets. At a price point of over $800.00 why would you waste your money of a small 8" saw when you can get a 10" Dewalt, the true "beast" of tile saws. This is just my opinion but would love to hear your thoughts.
because the 8" ridgid is $449 right now at homedepot.com
Now $399
One of the best reviews I’ve seen of any tool or basically anything in general & the background music is right on. Right up there with my all time favorite movies like Rambo , Commando & Coming to America.
lol thanks for the watch and comment 👊
The mobility on that Beast, man. I love it. don't know yet if the have it in The Netherlands. Thank you for this information.
Yup! and the Beast is super light also. Hope they have them there 👊
I had the 7" rigid for 5 years. It definitely got the job done but I had to so a lot of adjustments on the rigid guide rail and it still wasn't 100% spot on. I just recently purchased the kobalt 10" with gravity stand I will say that it's a spot on saw out the box for great price and especially coming out of Lowe's. Highly impressed with it and gravity stand is amazing. I've messed around with the Beast 10" at my tile supplier and it will definitely be the next saw I purchase when I replace the kobalt.
Interesting, thanks for the information! I think a Kobalt review video is coming up soon! For under $500 with a gravity stand you can't go wrong 👊
The Ridgid has a twist cap to empty water in the back. I have it. Wich one did you end up keeping ?
After 30 years in Cali. " where we put in MORE tile and stone than all you other peeps. Over the 2 you showed I would and have bought and used The rigid 10 inch. I also highly recommend all sizes of the TARGET Saw..
The rigdig does have a drain plug in the back corner
How go come you have too many saws?
on 7 in yes 8 in no
I don't have a ton of experience, but I've used this rigid saw a bit and find the laser really helpful and efficient. Maybe because I'm an amateur and not set in my ways. Surprised it's not discussed.
I also pump out of fresh water and leave drains open to a catch bucket. That way that pump never sees dirty water
Thanks for making this vid, good quality. I think for $400 the Ridgid is the best value for that kind of money and what I plan to buy myself.
I agree, it's a great value at 400 bucks! 👊
You can buy a aftermarket pump for the saw for nit alot
Also when comparing wet saws. A test for superior cutting is run out testing on a 24 inch tile. The better saws have more continuous power under load and table strength is steady. Some saws can move 1/8 or more on a 24 inch vertical cut. A critical issue. Benchmark saw they say is the Dewalt 10 inch.
I have the r4090 and the water flow to the blade was weak at best. I use to think it was clogged and would blow the hose out with the compressor with only minimal improvement, so I drilled a hole in the side of the blade housing and ran the hose straight in to it. same pump but 10x the water to the blade.
That's a brilliant idea! Thanks for sharing buddy and you should make a youtube video on this!
👊
Great idea i just baught the 8 inch i upgraded from 7 and there for a second i thought about getting the kobalt 10 i did like the fact that the kobalt it we and dry as well as the gravity stan and extra hose but I've managed to get a 10 3/8 hose with a small sprayer and small "valve" to have it set up as the kobalt ill also look into your idea..thank you both
I would love to see you do a review of a sawmaster tile saw. You are helping those of us that need information on tile saws that at the current in very slim.
good idea, tell them to send me one!
Cleanness of cut is a relatively poor indicator of saw quality, especially with garbage blades. Most important comparison points are table slide squareness/smoothness, motor, pump quality, cleanness, portability. Probably in that order. Did a shower in LFT with a table out of square and it SUCKED.
I noticed that the table on the Ridgid 12 amp with 8" blade is unstable when it is in the end of the track. If you have the table all the way back and start your cut the table will wiggle until you are a couple of inches into the cut. same thing when table gets to the other side. If your cutting a piece of tile small enough you can position the table within the zone where the table is stable and your cut will be accurate. bigger tiles will not be. It is suppose to be able to rip 24" tiles which it can but the wiggling table design flaw reduces that capacity to about 20" When your on a job and the quality of the cut is looking like shit it becomes a regret that you purchased this saw. Smaller tiles are no problem. Ridgid should correct this or stop saying it can handle 24" tiles.
I would tend to agree with you, I don't even know about the beast but I owned one of those Ridgid saws some years ago and I did not like it, in fact I sold it a couple weeks after I bought it... and you are spot-on, it is geared toward a DIYr. I'll have to look into the Beast, what did you pay for it?
The Ridgid is definitely not a bad saw for the price. I purchased the Beast at Home Depot online. It was on sale for $799 and included that amazing gravity stand. You will fall in love with that stand after you see it and use it in person. 👍
I think the 7in rigid has the same type of stand but if you minus the blade from rigid and beast. Which really is better? A good blade can cost you $50-$100 but price difference in saws are couple hundred🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
This ridgid had a basic stand, but the beast had a "gravity stand" which is awesome! You would have to add a good blade to the ridgid, a much better pump/sprayer, stronger motor and a gravity stand and then the ridgid will compare to the beast! They are still both good tile saw! 👊👊👊
I think the difference in motor is only 1amp which isn’t much. And you say a much stronger sprayer and pump which you can open up the valve freely. Also price wise it’s as much as the 10in dewalt I believe... But just a little bit smaller but I do really love your reviews and to me after testing both saws the table play is a deal breaker... Keep up the great reviews my friend🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
I totally agree! Same price as the 10 inch dewalt with a stand, blade and sometimes a free drill on contractors direct and I would take the dewalt over this beast all day long! The only two benefits are the small size, less weight and that bad ass gravity stand!Thanks for watching and I appreciate your comments! 👊👊👊
Starts cutting tile at 8:00 Thank you for the video
I got the ridgid paid only 100$ bucks for it the guy used it for one tile job he had at his.other wise I would rather have the dewalt over the beast but I like the ridgid like he said at the end ones for professional and the other for DIY guy.good video
Have had the beast for close to a year. I wouldn't trade it for the world, it's a great little "beast" lol. A little pricey yes but really a great saw, if could think of any issue it would be the slight table movement. A great video comparison.
Yes, that saw is a little beast and also a little pricey. Thanks for watching! 👊
Great video. Your music choice is excellent. Can you give me the info on the music. Oh yea, I am now a believer in the beast saw.
Thank you sir! The music info is in the description below when viewing the video. The source is Soundcloud. 👊
I’ve always used the 10” DEWALT. 9 years now. I got to use the 10” beast on 2 showers. It cut good and was smooth to use. And seemed a little quieter then the DEWALT. But the big drawback for me on the beast was all the water that leaked through the back and side trays and ended up on the floor instead of going back into the water pan. The DEWALT I have no water that hits the floor. So for me that’s A big draw back and will stick with the DEWALT. I do like the stand on the beast though.
shane brown 🤓 put dewalt trays on the Beast, and you have a perfect saw! I want to buy the Beast 10, because of its capacity.
There seems to be some tiny chipping on those cuts, would a better blade fix that? Or is it run out and table movement?
You should do DeWalt vs Lackmond Beast 10. Cut some 18x36 porcelain, miters, rips, and hold two mitered tiles together to see how tight of seam you can get. I would love to see it. Nice vids by the way
That's an excellent idea! I'll add that to the list. Other new saw reviews coming up this week! Stay tuned 👊
Which & size tile saw are you using daily everyday jobsite ?
I’m was using the 8inch ridgid wetsaw
Every job site but the water spray was going out, bearings were going out ... sold it.
I was looking at the 7inch delta wetsaw with gravity stand or the dewalt 10inch but idk
I do a lot of planks 9x35
6x24 etc ...
the ridgid looks exactly like a "commercial-lite" model of the husqvarna TS60.
This one is definitely a light weight saw. The motor is a bit weak also.
The rigid uses a universal pump standard for all saws, also a water hose can be used, as well as the fact you can use two water standard pumps in the rigid and ryobi.
And the dual sealed wheels are a big deal.
Also you compared the 7inch rigid. Nothing interesting about that. The 8 and ten inch needs to be stacked up. Is the beast really worth it then? Because I would like to know.
The rigid 7 inch is just a ryobi 7 inch
I have watched both your videos I would like to know your viewpoints on the kobalt 10 inch versus the ridgit 8 inch? I will be cutting quite a few beveled edges and I want a good sturdy tray. Most of the tile I cut is 12 x 24. Thanks Stephen
Kobalt 10" seems to be a better unit especially cutting miters.
Great video the background music is a nice touch.
Thank you buddy, appreciate it! 👊
I’m a professional contractor which 10” saw do you recommend Sir? I do a lot of bathrooms
the Dewalt is our favorite for sure. 👊
Ridigid bevel cut problem might has something to do with too much play when it's tray sliding on rail.
Looking for a new, new wet saw. My diamondback & stand (and who knowd what else) were stolen yesterday or late the night before.. I've had rigids 7 , 8" but considering thd delta. Wish I didn't have to spend a few hundred bucks again though but at least they didn't steal my big sigma.
If you demo a specific product, at a minimum list the product and model # in description.
How straight are those RIP cuts. That's my main concern.
I can tell you that the Ridgid is very presise any tile except when you cut 6x24 you might have 1/8 difference but you can correct that once you know the wet saw.
Agreed. This makes or breaks the saw for me. Specially on 24" rips. God how frustrating the table wobble after some good use on the dewalt wet saw, makes for some shit cuts.
I have the ridgid it's a great saw, but it hasn't been cutting square. Do you know how to square it up?
Now 10” ridgid vs dewalt. Please
Lol, yes, that video will come soon! 👊
Tile Setter 191 absolutely !!!👍
@Tile Setter 191 The downside of the Dewalt is that it can't be folded up and rolled around like the Ridgid. That's why I went with the Ridgid.
For DYI occasional use any saw around $400 will work and they will see no differance. I make a $200 MK work, BUT, for the tile contractors why save a few bucks on the most important tool. Just bite the bullet and at $1400, buy the Pearl Abrasive VX10.2XL 10" tile saw. This tool will last a life time for most users... For the "high volume" DIY users the Pearl is something you can hand down to your children.
I'll have to check that Pearl tile saw out! thx!
Did you adjust the pump flow all the way up on the ridgid pump?
Can anyone tell me how tall this saw is assembled on the gravity stand when folded down? I'm curious if it will fit under my tonneau cover. Overall width and length would be great too.
hey I have a issue with my 12" Ridgid tile saw where the blade wobbles any advice on how to fix it
Igor the beast 7” over the Dewalt 10”. Mostly because I love the gravity stand, the snake pipe nozzles, and the water valve. Plus everyone I know has the Dewalt.
Any chance you could tell me the overall height of the saw on the gravity stand when folded down? Thanks! Width and length would be nice but height is most important.
Everyone has the Dewalt because its the best saw on the market.
I'm on my 3rd. 7" Lackmond motor fried 2x,still under warranty.water containment is poor also
Interesting, that's a little more than "bad luck"...
Kinda make you wonder why they don't make them anymore and their discontinued.
"warm butter" ... Umm, that's known as oil. I think you meant "a hot knife through butter".
Nice video, thanks.
Love your channel i gonna buy a tile saw to start my buisnesd
Go for it!
Great video. Thanks for the review. Where can you buy a beast tile saw?
Check it out at Contractors direct . com 👊
Landberg Tile DIY TV great thanks
Question...the total weight of each saw,and the HP of each saw. On the HP I think a minimum of 1 1/2 is the least required , but let us know what you think. Thanks.
The Dewalt D2400 is a 1.5 HP saw and the motor is strong and works amazing! On the other for example, the Harbor Freight tile saw is 2.5 HP and the motor feels and seems to be weaker than the smaller HP in the Dewalt. I don't think HP has much to do with power. I think it depends on the quality of the motor. 👊
I like the ridgid saw I bought but when ripping a 24"+ tile, when only 2 wheels are on the rail instead of all 3 I've found that I have to hold forward on the fence in order to get a perfect cut! I wish I could get longer rails to keep all of the wheels on them at all times!
How long does a blade last for miter cuts (how many cuts can you get before you notice issues)? I heard the blade starts to wear unevenly and biases on cuts if you do miters.
Our blades don't last very long when we miter hard porcelain. We bought a new P4 blade for a bath and shower remodel and mitered every outside corner with hard porcelain for a tub deck, pony wall, curb and niche. (I'll upload that video tonight) I would bet that we might get two more mitered showers (miter curb and niche) before the blade starts to die and will probably replace it. $50.00 for a blade and may get 3-4 showers out of that. For us, it's definitely worth the investment for the mitered look! 👊
Landberg Tile DIY TV nice. I noticed they do it a lot in European countries. But their bathrooms are smaller and usually only 1-2 per house
I bought the Rigid and like it. I'm a weekend DIY'er. However, just did a project that had over 500 sf of 12x12 1/2" porcelain in a diagonal pattern with LOTS of doors, closets, and obstructions. Was the most tile cutting I have ever done in my DIY career. Ha Ha. Saw performed flawlessly. I agree water could be better but does work. However, I do pump water from the outside by hanging the pump into a 5 gallon bucket of clean water though. Maybe that is best if the pump and/or water system is fickle?
After trying a couple of cheaper saws including the HF 10" / 2.5, I settled on this. To be fair, the older HF saws seem good but the 2 I bought were nothing like the quality of the one at the store. Biggest reason was the track. So many lower priced saws have such a wobble that I was cracking tile and had some nasty looking cuts. All the cuts with the Rigid, not a single bad cut that was the saws fault.
The Rigid was more than I wanted to spend but with the lifetime warranty, consider it an investment for future projects. Anything that uses lots of electricity and water, has a higher chance of failure. Hence, the warranty for me may matter 5 or more years from now especially since I will not be using it at any great frequency.
If I did this for a living, I think I would get the dewalt.
I couldn’t agree more. If you install a bigger pump the problem will be fixed.
During the cutting anyway the dust is present. It is not good inside the room where you working.
No dust with a wet saw. 👊
It was water dust?
@@Векторкачества its mist come on man smarten up
Tengo una máquina RiDGID y la mesa pega con los cuarenta y cinco como le ago tiene al gun aumento para qe no pege
Great video. Try the Husqvarna 60. This is are go to. 
brutusman12345 we just got the TS70 and it is a monster. Loving it!
Good one, where can I buy it in Nigeria
Good job!!!
After using the dw240000 for a few years, I recently switched to the ridgid 10" "The Beast" and it is truly wonderful. Easily the best table I've used on a wet saw. Zero play and insane capacity. Definitely look into it, would like to see what you think about it. Especially since for my region the price point is amazing(699$)
Yes! I will have to do a comparison video on the Beast 10inch vs the Dewalt or Ridgid. What do you think?
Landberg Tile DIY TV I believe the one I got was the 2016 Ridgid 10" "The Beast" I wonder if Beast is owned by ridgid and they're combining them or something. At any rate, I've really enjoyed it so far. Got 3 floors and 2 showers to tile so I'll have more of an idea after that haha.
I recently stumbled on your channel and like your stuff man, keep it up!
Also it comes with that gravity stand nearly identical, and you're so right. It's amazing.
I also have 10" Beast Ridgid and the stand isn't to good. To bevel it..its a nightmare. I even push a shim to have the blade sq to the deck. And now that don't even make that saw. I think it just had to many problems. I also has a 7" ridgid on them stands and it's not as bad but it's not 100% either. I had a 10" ridgid table few years ago with that same kind of stand and it was rock solid. But I know the stands used on wet saws where thinner metal and smaller tubes. I have the Bosch gravity stands on a Bosch chop and table saw and they are stands that I can't say a bad word about.
@@LandbergTileTV The Dewalt has been the gold standard for a long time but it is in need of an update. Tiles have gotten so much bigger that my Dewalt often frustrates me. I love the saw but it needs better capacity or a jig to rip planks.
what about porter cable ? compared to these two make a comment ????????
The porter cable is a portable tabletop tile saw, these saws are full size 10" tile saws. Two completely different tools brother. 👊
Would it be possible to use a saw like these inside? Or you'll spray all over the room?
Yes, make sure to use plastic on the floor and behind the saw. Also, use ear protection as the saws are super loud indoors. 👊
@@LandbergTileTV thanks for the answer!
Where did you bought the Beast saw? I can't find it locally!
It's discontinued I believe.
The Delta is the exact same saw, but cheaper in price.
In your opinion what is the best wetsaw on the market today?
With the price of $700 with a stand, the Dewalt is way ahead of the pack. The Beast is a great saw, but the price point is at $1200. Dewalt is winning the race and the marathon 👊
Landberg Tile DIY TV if money’s not an issue beast 10 inch would be the way to go then
Got my beast for $900 online
Travis Wescott the 10 inch of so where
Shawn Bibian promo at stonetooling.com 2 years ago. Buy the saw, gravity stand was free.
i have 3 ridgid 2 of thew 7 inch and 1 of 10 inch they all work good for a few months then start having issues with the track rail,lazer and blade they dont cut straigth the only reason i bougth them was because I bought them with the home depot credit card on 12 month no interesrt assuming theyll get paid them self with the jobs I did and they were paid that way but I rathet dont buy anymore ridgid in the future I'll probably get the beast but still looking to get the best tile
What I would like to find is a water saw that can cut a 36-inch rip dead nuts Square Time After Time day in Day Out
Same here! but it won't happen anytime soon. There will always be small imperfections the trays...
The 10" lackmond is still dead straight for me after 20,000 feet so far, does a 39" rip.
Send me the one you dont want to Texas I'll take care of it for you bro...lol
lol thanks for the view brother! 👊
I have an older Ridgid that just quit. It has the same rail system as the one you reviewed. It has so much play. Very poor engineering imo. The slot in the wheel that rides on the rail is wider than the rail itself. They should have addressed that by now. Also the bigger the blade the poorer it will do on miter cuts due to flex.
The play engineering issues on the Ridgid are something I learned after using it for awhile. Small tile is no problem but it is a deal breaker larger tile. It is amazing that they let it even be sold as it is unprofessional to allow the quality of cut that the slop in the rails delivers. Anyone doing 24" X 24" tile should avoid it unless they want an inferior looking result. It is bad enough having to deal with the small chips you get but that plus a wobbly cut is garbage. If I did tile everyday for a living I would not use this except for Subway or maybe 6x6 tiles
Where did u buy the beast saw?
contractors direct dot com
We recently bought the 10” beast and worst buy ever! It’s way to bulky. Trays don’t do any good, water gets all over the place and that’s stupid tray on the end it’s a pain in the butt to take off, and it needs to be taken off to be able to fold the legs. Love my 10” dewalt and 7” rigid!
Yes sir, I agree with most of that. Thanks for the comment! 👊
i have a Rubi DT 250 evolution ....the saw is amazing with a gravity stand
Interesting...not bad for $800 bucks. I may have to review this 👊
I prefer capacitor/induction start motors over universal ones. They are smoother running, quieter, and longer lasting. ALL the major power tool brands are rolling out tile saws, a new product line area for most, which are equipped with standard universal motors. Meh
like husqvarna tile saw they las 4 ever
I am almost 50 and have used every tile saw made. there may be saws with more attachments and gadgets but for the price and quality there is not a tile saw out there better than the Ridgid. if you are one to buy the Beast or the Dewalt over the Ridgid you are plans and simple a Sucker and just buy the most expensive tools just to saw you have the most expensive tools... which ultimately makes YOU a tool. the best saw was the most aggravating saw I have ever used... there are certain cuts you simply can't make very easily or in a timely fashion. I wanted to throw it in the trash. the Dewalt is just too damn heavy. and I am a Dewalt guy. Ridgid clean and simple makes the perfect saw for the perfect price. You could literally buy 2 for the price of the others I mentioned. this video was pointless... could have made a better video in less then a minute. you want a perfect saw for a killer price? buy the Ridgid... You want to over pay for a saw buy the best? done.
Stay away from ridgid tile saw I bought the 8" $500 plus taxes not even 2 years ago and the motor went , I sent it for repair, they hold it for a month with no updates or phone call ,so i called them to find out what's going on , they asked me to pay $330 saying it's not covered under warranty plus their costumer sevice is really bad , stay away and save your self the headache, spend the extra dollars and get dewalt or husqvarna
how many tile saws has his guy bought lol
What's your go-to tile saw today?
Drain Plug alert 6:37.
Compare apples to apples. The beast is a $1,000 saw with the gravity stand compared to the $500 Ridgid.
What would you like me to compare next?
The Beast is to messy. Water everywhere. I do like the bigger table. But you can just put a better blade on the Ridgid. How often do you move a tile tile saw on a job? Rigid does sell a wheeled stand. Loading up is a one man job with the Ridgid. I would go with the Ridgid. Plus a life time warranty with Ridgid.
Good info and TRUE on the Ridgid warranty only if you register and log it online. 👊
Answer is commercial work, you move a lot. Make sure the trays are set properly, you shouldn't be spilling water. Mine did it once and the trays weren't seated in place all the way. Ever since I've made sure, and no spills.
Has always it’s the blade. For the cut ,and money my hot dog. Cuts like butter
Yes sir it does! 👊
Im want Bangladesh
Bevel cut, not miter cut
they mean the same things. Tomayto, tomahto...
Be precise in wordage. Bevel refers to edge detail. Miter is the joint angle. There are a lot of English majors working as carpenters!
Both Waste of $
Get a MK can't go wrong
Maybe, but MK don't make new saw's anymore. Lowe's will sell them, but bad reviews...Time and technology moves on in this world, direct drive is what's produced...
Neither of those. MK diamond wet saws are the best by far.
I disagree, MK and Target is the past, this is the future brother! Not saying they are bad saws as I still own an old Target.
Ridgid pumps are terrible!! Lol
Yes sir you are right! 👊
The 10 inch ridgid saw is by far the superior tile saw. The 7 inch and 8 inch saws suck ass.
I have plans on reviewing and comparing the 10 inch Ridgid vs the Dewalt 👊
landberg Tile TV the 10 inch saws are great
rigid wet saws are junk...for DIY at best
I have been doing tile for half my life and I am almost 50. I have used every tile saw made I can assure you. I own a Ridgid tile and I have used on a daily basis the Beast and the Dewalt. I would choose the Ridgid hands down. 1 it's lighter then any other saw. 2 its cheaper in price but NOT cheaper in performance. if you say these saws are junk then I question your intelligence ? from your comment you are clearly ignorant.
