Cutting Ruby in Fuchsite. Raytech L-10S 10” Slab Saw. Lapidary Rockhound Rock Tumbler UV Reactive
I finally got the slab saw that I wanted. The Raytech L-10S slab saw is not massive and doesn’t need gallons of mineral oil to cut rocks. I put it on a small table and can use water to cut. The reservoir is removable and it’s easy to clean.

Beautiful color contrast in that stone. Nice clean cuts too.
What a difference after the cut. Very pretty. Love how it stands out under the light. Reminds me of the yooper light rocks. Nice video Jay. Waiting to see what rock you'll do next. 😁
It seems like you need a tiny wedge on the slab side so the slab drops down. Otherwise, it seems like it would vibrate itself forward and risk scratching it all to heck. Alternate, you could add an arm that wraps around and pushes it forward until the saw auto shuts off. I love the contrast of the red and green. Also, I'm curious to see how something like eclogite looks.
Quite the investment for the saw but boy it cuts nice. Always good to get the right tool for the job. Cuts look good! Do you have to polish them more after the cut?

I’ve been using a harbor freight tile saw for a couple years. Most times I could get a nice even slab. Sometimes I’d get uneven slabs or end up with saw marks. My lower back and hands would fatigue after a few hours of cutting. Now I can set it and forget it. Lol The slabs could always use a polish. All that means is removing scratches. I cut palmstones and cabochons out of the slabs and polish them.
