Description
Gemini Taurus 3 Ring Saw
The Gemini Taurus 3 is a light duty Ring Saw, using the same technology found in the Revolution wet saw.
Features:
- Light duty ring saw, using the same technology found in the Revolution wet saw
- The tool's cutting blade is a veritable "ring" of stainless steel whose 360 degree surface is completely coated with diamond grit
- You can feed a piece of wall tile or glass into the blade from any direction and get a clean, accurate cut
- Since the blade cuts so precisely, no further grinding is necessary
- It produces finished cuts with intricacies that are impossible with conventional cutters
- Portable, as it is easy to lift the motor and saw housing from the basin
- Tile Shaper Separating Blade sold separately
- One year factory warranty for motor
Handheld Unit:
- The Taurus 3 is shipped with all of the components to use it as a hand held saw
- Bottom door ( soak bottom door in water before using to lubricate blade)
- Thumb screw
- Bottom door clip
Taurus 3 Blades:
- All blades cut the same materials: glass, tile, stone, shell, nonferrous metals, hard plastics such as acrylic and lexan, and anything that has a similar density to these materials
- All blades use the same belt and grommets. Blades are interchangeable with the same belt and grommets and do not need to be changed unless they are excessively worn
- Always let the blade do the cutting. Forcing the blade through the material can damage the blade. There is an optimum speed for each blade in each material; you can feel it while you are cutting. Sensitivity to this causes extremely long blade life
What's Included:
- Gemini Taurus 3 110V Tile Shaper Ring Saw
- 1 Mega Blade (installed)
- Integrated spot light
- Removable face shield
- 1 Stabilizer Foot
- 1 Instructional DVD and user manual
- The Mega Blade features a tear drop shape and is ideal for cutting dense materials. This the strongest blade available. It won't flex, ensuring you get the most accurate cut each time. Unlike other omni-directional blades available, this blade is designed primarily for forward and backward cuts. The material should be slowly fed into the blade and not forced through so as to not damage the saw itself.
Gemini Taurus 2 Standard Blade:
- The Standard Taurus 2 Blade (works with the Taurus 3 Saw) is completely coated with a diamond grit, allowing for omni-directional cuts. The blade can be used to cut tile, glass, hard plastics, and non-ferrous metals.
- Standard Wire Blade: The Standard Wire Blade is a versatile blade that can cut a variety of materials, making it a good, general purpose blade. It has omni-directional cutting capabilities due to its 360 degree diamond grit coating.
- Slim Wire Blade: The Slim Wire Blade features the most intricate cutting capability of all the Ring Saw Blades. It cuts extreme and detailed designs, omni-directional. It is ideal for cutting non-ferrous metals, but it does, however, lose strength due its smaller size and should be used when its size is beneficial.
- Fine Wire / Dichroic Blade: The Fine Wire / Dichroic Blade is specifically for cutting dichroic glass, iridescent coated glass, and jewelry. It features a 360 degree diamond coating for creating omni-directional, intricate designs that won't chip delicate dichroic finishes, leaving pefect edges. These clean edges mean ower temperatures when firing kiln fired jewelry, resulting in faster firing times and clean, professional results.
