Hi everyone!When I built my cabbing machine two years ago, I made it as a combo unit with a small trim saw on the left end of the arbor. But I was not pleased with the way it cut rocks. And when I visited Zoran one year ago and made some cutting at his trim saw, I was convinced I have to build one of these myself.
Well, these days I finished it. Building the machine myself is a bit too much said, in fact I drew the sketches, somebody made them to me and I just put them together.
Here are some pics:
"welcome home!":
the water tank:
the lid:
Then I painted the pieces and put them together on a table:
Some electrical works:
The most professional item is the splash guard, agree?
I made the first cut and noticed two things: 1. It cuts way better than the trim saw in my old combo machine
; 2. a gasket in between the lid and the water tank is NEEDED 
And I placed this new trim saw in the balcony, next to the "old" cabbing machine. I had to negotiate with Ina about that - a big yucca flower had to be relocated - but now that she's also in the hobby I had the agreement pretty easy
Now that I won't use the left side of the arbor as a trim saw, I think I'm gonna buy some diamond blades for ceramic cutting and I will place them together to make a sort of grinding wheel.
Thanks for looking,
Adrian
