Most advice given here recently has been for dry work and 230mm
discs.

My 2 stroke stone saw is about due for a new blade and I wondered

if
anyone has a recommendation or comments about something suitable

for
wet
cutting?

I have rather a lot of concrete blocks to lay.

Tim,

18 months ago I bought a bulk lot of 10 on ebay - they are "Blue

Spot"
"Pro Series" "Professional" stock code 19533 - as is the way with
these things I was somewhat sceptical hence buying 10 rather than

one,
however despite very heavy usage chopping up concrete slabs and

blocks
I've still only used 3 off them! I think they were supposed for dry
use, but I've used them both dry and wet and they've performed very
well.


Hmm.. Disc prices seem to vary between 15 and 150ukp!

Manufacturers claims seem to centre around hardness of material to

be
cut. I.e. insulating block to seasoned, flint based concrete.

Nobody mentions wet cutting.

Mine came from :

http://tool-bargains.co.uk/

I paid £73 for 10 off plus postage


Must have been a temporary line. They are only offering concrete
grinding discs at the moment.

Plenty of stuff on e-bay.

Lots say dry use so perhaps one could conclude the others are OK in the
wet:-)
