| 5000 Saw |

Pros : The saw cuts like a dream through a variety of glasses including thick pot melts. Set up was easy and saw is easy to use.
|
Cons : Very loud! I have to wear ear plugs. The blades are poorly made, I got maybe 2 hours of cutting time on 1 blade and maybe 3 hours on the second. I am currently looking for a different manufacturer for blades. The saw is also very messy, water flows everywhere and the water tray is too small to catch any of it. I have placed the entire saw and tray into a large plastic container to catch the water run off from the table. This is working well for me.
|
| Other Thoughts : I purchased this saw as a step up from my DL 3000 because I have just worn it out. I thought that this saw would be a little more sturdy for the amount of use I put a saw through, so far it just seems more expensive. The blade cost compared to blade quality is horrible and the noise level is unbelievable. I would not purchase this saw again but would purchase 3 of the DL 3000 for the same cost. |

Pros : It is able to make complex cuts. Blades might last as long as claimed if all you want to do is straight cuts.
|
Cons : Blade breakage has been much too frequent-they last no where near as long as claimed. My last blade lasted 10 hours! The saw itself is very poorly constructed.
|
| Other Thoughts : Sent mine back to the manufacturer for service-no improvement. Don't lose any sleep over wishing you had one-this one has been a nightmare. |

Pros : Cuts either stone or glass very well, easily set up to use on the job site or on a table...
|
Cons : Could use a larger water tray...
|
| Other Thoughts : It made cuts for my kitchen and bathrooms I couldn't have done any other way during my stone projects, now I can enjoy its use for my stained glass projects..... |
