Lighter Duty Lapidary Saws
Model TC-6 Lapidary Trim Saw
The MODEL TC-6 6" trim saw (former model MS-6) has an 8" x 10" flat table for cutting large slabs. Table swings up for easy cleaning. Has removable shield. Cast aluminum construction with impact resistant finish. Stainless steel 5/8" arbor with two sealed bearings and extra neoprene seal on tank side.
This saw can be used with oil or water as a coolant. We recommend Roc-Oil, a food grade mineral oil that gives you the advantage of fast cutting without the usual disadvantages of oil. If water is used, a stainless steel blade needs to be used to avoid rusting.
NOTE: The standard TR Series slab saws are designed for lapidary use. For other industrial or commercial uses, modifications must be made to the saws. Please call us at: 253-588-2350 with your specifications to receive a quote.

TC-10 10 inch Trim/Slab Saw
Slabbing rocks is easy with the power feed mechanism on the Model TC-10 trim/slab saw. (Former model TC-1) For slabbing, secure your rock in the large vise - it takes rocks up to 3 5/8" x 6" wide by 6" long - and the power feed goes from there. Vise glides smoothly and accurately on two stainless steel rails. Vise cross feed in 2". Power feed as automatic shutoff switch.
Trimming slabs is also easy. Arbor is centered on 13" x 17" table, make a 90 degree perpendicular cut every time. Stainless steel arbor shaft has two sealed ball bearings and an extra neoprene seal at tank.
Cleanup is easy too. Hinged table flips up for access to coolant tank and sludge removal.
Tank is durable aluminum construction with impact resistant finish for long life.
Use oil as a coolant. We recommend Roc-Oil, a fast cutting mineral oil without the disadvantages of regular oils.

Arbor shaft is 5/8" stainless steel with lubricated, factory sealed ball bearings and an extra neoprene oil seal on the tank side.
Vise jaws are steel plate with hardwood facings. Designed for a time-tested, economical gravity feed system, the vise has 1 1/2" lateral movement for cross-feeding and adjustable stop guide for constant thickness cuts.

Model TC-14 Trim/Slab Saw
The Model TC-14 14" saw will handle all your trimming jobs and most of your slabbing needs as well - all in one rugged, powerful saw.
Start with the trimming job. The vise can be completely removed to allow access to the blade and deck which measures 19 1/2" W x 26" L. The arbor is mounted on top of the deck so the center of the blade is even with the deck top. This makes 90 degree corner trim cuts easy to do.
Add the vise and power feed and you can slab rocks up to approximately 5" x 7" in size. The vise has over 3" cross feed adjustment and moves on strong, stainless steel glides. The power feed motor is geared for continuous operation with a slip clutch and sfety shut off switch. Powder coated metal hood with acrylic window lets you watch the saw at work and helps keep the coolant contained.
Oil must be used with this saw for fast cutting operation. We recommend Roc-Oil.

TIPS for slabbing with gravity feed trim/slab saws.
1. Object to be slabbed is clamped in vise. The cut is started by hand pressure.
2. A bucket of sand is attached to the gravity feed cable to maintain an even pressure throughout.
3. Gravity feed and vise are removed. Once this is done, slabs can be held by hand to be trimmed to the desired shape.
4. All cuts must be made in a straight line. Be careful not to put side pressure on the blade. Successive straight cuts approximate curved lines that will be finished on a grinding wheel. Make all trim saw cuts outside the template mark.
