As we approach Halloween and then the holiday season, many of us are having trouble thinking of gift ideas for parents, family members, and friends. You've gifted dad ties, hand tools, dvds, and more throughout the years, but you're having trouble thinking of what to do this christmas. Although I don't usually recommend high-end tools for the DIYers because the high cost doesn't translate to savings in time or efficiencies for quite awhile in most cases. However, there are a number of professional-grade tile saws that sell at lower price points, allowing serious DIYers to enjoy the production of an industrial saw, at a low initial cost. Although these "cheap tile saws" aren't necessarily cheap compared to other options available in the DIY market, they will not disappoint!
In particular, the Felker TM-75 8" Tile Saw offers the versatility and power needed to get any small to medium sized cutting job done with precision cuts. The 8" blade capacity is perfect for cutting moderate sized tile for a number of kitchen, bathroom, and other tile projects. The saw comes with a high quality Felker Tile Diamond Blade and a water tray, making this saw ready to use out of the box. For a little more, a saw stand can be added for ultimate portability on any job. The Saw lists for $377 and the lowest price I've found online is $299.89 plus shipping. Considering the high quality the Felker brand continues to uphold, this is a minimal cost. I've used the saw on several projects and have never had an issue! I can't say enough good things about this saw, one of the most popular on the market.
