MK Diamond 770exp [Posted on 2005-03-07]
This is the saw that home improvement centers should carry. I do 10-15 tile jobs per year for friends and friends of friends plus myself and family. I do not need a $900 10" saw. However this saw rips and diagonals the same size tile. It has the same adjustments and capabilities as the more expensive saw. It may not have last as long as the saw doing 50-75 jobs per year, but neither will I. This saw will give the average DYI the opportunity to make their job professional. A great saw at a fair price that will last a lifetime, versatile, easy to use, and accurate. [...]

The MK770EXP is light weight. Its "DC" motor has a lot of toqure for its size but it is a right angle "gearmotor". These gears have a lot of backlash (about .200" at the circumferece of the wheel). The brushes "will" need to be changed out and they of course rub on the commutator which resonates through the gear head to the wheel. This vibration tends to chip my tile entering the corners and on exit. Out in the middle of the tile with constant pressure its fine. Consider the MK100 with its "AC" motor and belt drive(it should have a much smoother cut). Loosing those noisy brushes, that need changed, for belts that also will wear out, but I think worth the trade. Gaining the 10" wheel would also have obvious benifits.

An excelent saw [Posted on 2008-02-23]
This saw is an upgrade for me from the MK 770, and I could not be happier with my purchase, or the manner and short time in which it was delivered to my business.
All the spec's, details, photos and prices I needed were there before me on screen, to do all the comparisons I needed between saws and prices.
I have used various MK products through my life and always relied on them for their dependability and accuracy.
This is the first online purchase I have ever made with Amazon.com, and will by no means be the last!
