Good video, you spoke clearly at a balanced volume throughout. I purchased one for stained glass purposes, and it described how the only material it couldn't cut was coral, and yet you proved them wrong about their product's limitations. Probably because you need to manipulate the rpm of the blade while cutting through different parts and it takes a bit of finesse. Quick question- why do people cut coral? Does that help it "reproduce" in captivity?
That is very strange that someone said it couldn't cut coral, on Inland's website it is marketed specifically for cutting corals (among other things like glass) and does a bang up job! As far as why people cut coral, you nailed it. Most corals can reproduce asexually this way, so cut one coral in to pieces and each will grow into a new colony.
Always saltwater!! I simply scoop a bit from our system so the parameters are exactly the same. RO water would be bad for coral health and likely lead to higher frag and colony mortality. Happy fragging!
I thought so... just was not sure how is this affecting the blade itself. Thank you anyway.. I will definitely purchase it from the UK rep. Thank you very much!
Just be sure to rinse and dry after use. You will have to replace the blade eventually but that is just normal wear and tear. I've never had one rust on me.
I'm not sure, the diamond saw blade works great on the hard calcium carbonate skeleton of coral but I've never tried it on those materials. You'd probably be best served asking Inland directly. My gut says there are better choices out there. Wish you luck!
Thanks for this, i have the same model. Very helpful video. I had a problem changing the blade.
Thank you. Planning to use mine for Stained Glass and woodwork. Hope to receive it soon.
Hope it works well for you!
wow this guy really loves this saw

Cutting ceramic tile?
hi, thank you for the video. Are you using the RO water for the dripping or the salt aquarium water? what is your suggestion? Thank you!

Would this be good for carbon fiber and acrylics
