SkilSPT4004 7" Segmented Diamond Saw Blade

I like me tools....This machine is awesome!!!. Only suggestion to manufacturer is make the guide wheel a fraction wider than a cutting blade so the guide wheel does not get stuck in the cut on the second cut and perhaps have the water line shut off higher to the handle for easier shut on and off while moving ... And for those thinking about buying this stop humming and haring do not hesitate just buy it! I luv it!!!

I wouldn't want to tear up a driveway with this, but if you need to drop a 2" cut accurately in poured slabs for expansion and crack management, this is the ticket. And I'm sure I'll find more uses for it. I've had it for several months in the box because weather hasn't cooperated, and had it out last Saturday to cut two slabs poured last fall. I watched some YouTubes and was impressed at how fast this cuts and when I hooked it up and ran it, it worked perfectly and just as in the video. Water feed worked great, but be aware that it puts a small stream from a large hose so drain it back before you disconnect. I didn't and let us say I left wet. The only thing I did not like is that the skates came covered in plastic and it took me about as long to remove the plastic off as it did to make a six foot cut. In retrospect, I suspect that I should have just run it and let the plastic come off on it's own. All in all, this is highly recommended. It's not cheap but it does it's job. PS: I bought the Skilsaw blade that was listed with the saw and was very pleased. Not sure if a lessor blade would have been just as good.

It’s easy to use. It worked great dry cutting grout lines 1/8” deep in decorative concrete. 470 sqft area making 1’x1’ up to 2’x2’ squares and rectangles. Saw still did not seem heavy at the end of all the cutting. I also used it to wet cut 1” expansion joints on the same patio. That gets the 4 stars. It cut ok that deep but it was not fast. I Expected that with a 7” blade but it did the job at an easy pace without a problem. It rolls easy, stays at one depth, excellent for decorative work. If you make a lot of 1”-2” depth cuts I’d get a bigger saw. I have a walk behind for driveways this will be used for smaller projects and will work just fine.

So Skillsaw.....you have done it again. As soon as I saw this saw on Amazon Prime I ordered it right away. I bought it to save money when cutting our next concrete slab on a house we are starting. But as it was just sitting waiting to be tried out I had some 3/8" concrete siding to cut do I thought ....hay use the new saw....so I got it out and i really did not want to get it all dirty from cutting with the water. So I cut it dry and hooked up our shop vac. Wow I can't tell you how much I love this saw. I have never cut concrete board even with a mask and not smelt the dust. This thing was unreal. I never smelt any dust ant I could hardly see any also. Skill you hit a grand slam with this tool. Thanks for making it. I'll never cut concrete or concrete board with any other saw. Trust me people this is the bomb. Buy it you will never regret it. I bought it with out the long handle and then a few days later when I was back on Amazon it came up with the large handle. So now that I cut the board with it I think I'll buy another one with the handle for slab cutting and keep this one for concrete board cutting.

I work commercial construction full time and do decorative concrete on the side. I wanted a early entry saw to saw cut joints the next morning . I couldn't afford a soff cut saw and bought this hoping it would hold up. I highly recommend it as an early entry up to 2" deep fine joint cutting saw. I have not tried it the same day as I don't stick around to watch concrete dry very often.

The media could not be loaded.  Only thing is I don't like being on my knees to cut but this saw cuts strait clean doesn't chip intersections are super clean I've made a little over 2000 dollars with this saw since I've opened it and the picks are the hardest I've pushed it concrete cures slow under water it was raining for two days straight I had to get it done it was hard this was a 50 yard shop floor 2 80 foot cuts and 7 35 foot cuts in up to 4 inch deep water the concrete dust/mud was blowing out the dust collecter.I bout this just to cut my personal driveway 2 70 foot cuts and 5 20 foot cuts I've since cut 6 pool decks and 6 good sized garage floors and a tone of random decorative things this little saw is the business I just ordered the walk behind to get off my knees the only downside is it's not gas but my generator runs it just fine thanks skill it cuts super straight and doesn't chip intersections honestly my favorite of the 7 saws in my van blades are cheap I started with the whirlwind and the bosch. Bosch rocks on hard stuff whirlwind is great for pea gravel mix and greener mud obviously there are better blades out there but 400 bucks total I'm just now need ING a new blade I highly recommend this saw I hope the walk behind is as impressive

I was in the shop one day and I was going to build this saw from an idea I had and an older model 77 saw when I wondered to myself if this had been done before... I looked up water skilsaw and that’s when I purchased this saw! It’s great! I use it once a week or so. I do wish I could adjust and put more water through it without modifying this one replaceable part. It is set to add just enough water to create a paste of the concrete dust. That’s great for inside cutting but outside I like more water so the blade is kept cooler and the paste is diluted thereby making the rinsing easier on long cuts. There is virtually zero dust! I use a shaped piece of wood jammed into the handle to give a taller handle so I can kneel and cut. I’m going to make a taller handle for it this winter.
