Brick cutting machine

[diggerjones]

Got a big job starting soon. There's going to be lots of brick work involved.
Barn conversion so the brick work is all doorways, windows etc. So lots of cuts and closures. Normally just use electric/petrol saw but I think a table saw would be better.
Anyone got anything or know of something,

Clipper saw

Got a Mini Clipper sat in my container that I never use, really good tool for bricks or block pavers but the motor is worn out so it's easy to stall.

If you've got loads to do the bigger model (CM501 is the common one I think) will have more power and cut several at a time.

They will be only Cheshire bricks, soft as cheese. Where abouts are you. Has it water because that's a must.
My idea or want, is water and electric.
Thanks

If you do slabs too maybe worth thinking about something like this. Nearly bought 1 2 years ago but everywhere had no stock due to the scamdemic

if you go for a big clipper and find a s/hand one, check the motor plate for start current ... Rio's needed a 16A supply on start, but ran on 8A ... kept blowing fuses 'til i put a 16A plug on it for a 16A circuit and breaker

That's the thing I'm after. Not too pretty but does the job. Nothing to fancy because it will be kept outside

I doubt Rio would sell it TBH ... he bought it new - then lent it to a mate - that's the state it came back in - I had to make it some new wheels cos all the 'proper' ones were fooked on the bed trolley - new blade and it worked a treat .. spent quite a bit of time on it chopping stuff for Rio for our wall .. I can ask him if he'd part with it if you like

I’ve this belle ms521 petrol, water recirculating 14” blade great tool for repeated cuts. Picked mine up from auction make 200-300 every month

Ask him. You only want him to sell it me because when I pick it up I'll have to fetch some tat down you've bought and stored at mogmans

Is that for tiles

quite possibly, but if it'll do a brick depth, would think it'd cut 'em .... 't ain't dear for sure and you're only cutting ''cheese'' ... apparently

Yes, I wouldn’t put bricks through it! before you know it the Stihl saw will be out again! Which in fairness is all my lads use anyway, just follows them around the scaffolding.

 

[Giles]

I use a bigger version for block and beam floors or when we did big industrial site needed loads of 50mm slips to finish at right height so worked a treat could get two block on table and cut away

Yes but it's tedious and I'm old and want to avoid bending down
