6" Trim saw
SKU: 22-319
Our American-made 6″ trim saw is the perfect saw for trimming-out cabochon preforms in rocks, minerals and glass, or to cleanly trim facet material. This saw includes TWO different types of 6″ saw blades to best-suit your cutting material; one economy silver notched diamond saw blade and one premium, long-lasting red sintered diamond saw blade. Saws are available with or without the saw vise accessory.
The Hi-Tech Diamond 6" trim saw is manufactured with a 5/8" arbor and will accept any 6" saw blade that has a 5/8" arbor. The saw table has a large work area, measuring 15-1/2" L X 9" W. The housing is made of unbreakable, cross-linked polyethylene that makes it rustproof and easy to clean. Installed in each saw is a 1/4 hp, heavy-duty, direct drive permanent magnet motor with sealed ball bearings. The motor is variable speed and can deliver speeds from 800 to 3,400 rpm. The coolant reservoir is built right into the base of the machine and can hold up to 16 ounces of water. The removable saw table that covers the reservoir makes cleanup easy. The splash guard that comes with the machine keeps water off you and on your piece, making it easier for you to work.
This Hi-Tech Diamond 6" trim saw machine comes with TWO different types of 6" saw blades to best-suit your cutting material. The silver notched diamond saw blade is designed for cutting rocks and minerals such as turquoise, aqua, garnet, corundum, emerald and ruby, while the red sintered diamond saw blade is designed for cutting pieces of glass, topaz, quartz and fine agates.

Customer Reviews
Wish I had bought this sooner than I did, I have already gotten a lot of use out of it. It cuts super fast and smooth with no kickback, but would like to have seen a drain plug on the water reservoir.
I recently embarked on a mission to create jewelry from agates collected by a lost loved one. I want to make beautiful reminders for family and friends. I have a decent shop and am comfortable with tools but a complete lapidary newb. This saw is great.
Best advice I have is watch a few youtube videos of folks like using this, follow their lead, it works as shown in many decent hobbist vids in my experience.
Here's a couple I like:

It's great lightweight and I can use it inside without worrying everything might get to wet.
Saws like your slicing butter!
This is a great saw for my lapidary projects at home. The only trouble is having to pick up the whole machine to dump the water out after each use. A sealed drain would make the water reservoir more convenient for drainage and cleaning.
