Just needed to vent

[mpoletti]

I hate my inland band saw. I used to have this nice collection of chalices that averaged over 2-3" in diameter.

Not any more. In the last week alone, I have destroyed (maybe a tad bit of over reaction) some pieces that I said I would never cut.

I really need to stop cutting chalices just to cut them as I am enamored with this cool device.

Sorry, I just had to rant

I think if I had one of those saws I'd cut everything in my tank.

I have never lost a frag with the inland.

Want to come to Chicago and use my saw on my chalice collection Mark? Seems like you have better luck than I do

Anything else I'm fine ... just not with the chalices!

 

[mpoletti]

I have noticed that the cutting is so much nicer. They are clean and the polyps are are in a couple of hours after cutting.

People kept telling me that I needed to get one. Then those same people told me I needed to be careful once I got it

I wish I could publicly admit how bad it has become. I am not at that point....yet

Or just send them to me Jeremy drops off stuff on Friday, I frag them over the weekend and he picks them up on his way out of town :xd:

This was the best $200 investment I have ever made it this hobby.

On a positive note, my ocd feels better as all of my corals are nice and clean; except the ones that used to be round

i have a diamond laser and know how you feel. BUT i must say it sure is nice to cut a frag and see it fully open within hours and fully healed within a week. best 400 bucks ihave ever spend for this business

I know, I used to quick with the no's when someone wanted a gem, now its more like "Is that all you want me to cut"

It was getting stung by a couple nice aquacultured yumas so I had to cut 40 or so heads off of it

It is a diamond blade wet band saw. just the brand. they are used to cut glass in crazy shapes but work wonders on coral. i thik the inland saw is the same type of things just a different brand. although not all inland saws are wet saws so it depends on which one you have
