The Cutting Machine

This saw is made for slicing through slate tile like through butter. This is an Imer Combi 250V.  Great for 16" X 16"material as I can throw the full pieces up on the deck with no problem.  As you can see it rotates and cuts bevels up to 45 degrees.  It came in to play as I did the detail for the steps' down.  I put a 45 bevel followed by a square cut half way down the bevel to give the tread a bold look.  It is truly a beast & was well worth the investment if you have any desire to work with big slate.   The American flag decal and my stenciled initial were custom touches by me!  My entry was cut in a day & then I spent Sunday setting the cut pieces.  A full weekend of work, but I can see my vision coming to life before my eyes.  Exciting!
