Has anyone used a Skilsaw to cut Marble?
Have a Risso Wetsaw but someone stole the sliding table.
Only have ~20 cuts and 150.00 for a new table seems ridiculous.

it should work. i use one to cut down granite slabs. use a diamond
blade.

however: the dust will kill it. put a heavy fan near you and blow
the dust away from the saw. do this outside. also, breathing the
dust could give you silicosis.

it's much safer to do this using some sort of wet saw.


Just run the water hose across the skill saw blade and marble.


Izzat safe?



I'z douts zit.
