[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 123999, member: 2976"] Ah, you meant a trim saw Twapster. Some cabbing machines come with a trim saw on one end, the expanding drum types. I looked at one of those but settled on the bigger unit so it didn't have to keep changing belts all the time. The Cabking can take one on the left hand end I think but I have one anyway, similar to Thomas's. It's actually a wet tile saw and it came with a thick tile cutting blade (diamond edged) and a finer lapidary blade. The the tile blade works great for slicing up small thunder eggs and agate nodules while the finer one is what you would use for cutting up thin slabs or faceting material. [/QUOTE]
