As a follow-up to the lengthy thread on these machines before Xmas, can
I ask where people get replacement blades?

I bought a 115mm one from Screwfix for it recently, only to find it's
slightly too large... apparently it should be 110mm, which sounds very
non-standard to me. (Is this a Plasplugs ploy to prevent non-branded
disks being fitted?)

If I have to buy Plasplug blades, how much should I expect to pay for them?

Thanks
david

Fab - thanks! And not stocked by Screwfix. I see toolstation still do
free delivery/low value items if you can wait a few days. Watch out
Screwfix....

Can't fault them for service. The range is still very small compared to
SF, but it is growing.

I notice that if people start to ask them for something not on the stock item
list, they go all out to try and get it. They're going to be a real competitor
against SF in a little while.

My local B&Q has them. But the original has a pretty long life if cutting
ordinary tiles. Porcelain ones might be different.
