MK370 Saw

Post by Stuart Clayman »

Does anyone know about this saw? I have access to one? Does it do a good job or should I hold out for a larger one?

I have a 370 and I used the stew out of it.......but, it is LOUD and it has trouble cutting the bigger, heavier slabs that I work with now. It can do it, but it is much easier on the MK-100 that I have now as well. ANd, the noise reduction from one to the other is uncanny. Get some ear plugs if you use the 370.

Matter of fact I will sell my MK 370 for 200$ if anyone is interested after my comments....... :shock:

i have an mk370 and other than the noise and water tossing it works for what i'm doing using either the 215gl blade or the 303 prof lapidary blade - the thickest slabs i cut are about 1/2" thick - there is one out that is supposed to have much better noise reduction but it's also twice the $$ - i wear earplugs....
