Okay, I get a feeling that I'm going to get my butt kicked by purists here, but here I go anyway:
I'm regrouting a shower surround of a '57 construction tub/shower combination, and replacing a few of the cracked tiles in the process. I don't have much to cut, and was considering just getting a dry tile blade and mounting it on my BT3100 for the very few (five or so) straight cuts that I need to make to complete the job.
First, will a tile blade fit the 3100, and second, if it will, am I making some terrible and dangerous mistake trying to do it this way?
Flame away if you must (I, too, generally disapprove of using a tool for something for which it wasn't designed...), but I'd rather not purchase or rent a separate saw for such a small lot of cuts. Thanks for any and all responses .
