I think I have my choices narrowed down. I was kinda liking the Raimondi Gladiator rail saw.. Anyone ever use a Raimondi? http://www.contractorsdirect.com/s.nl/sc.8/category.44/it.A/id.2724/.f

I've used almost the exact same saw. Ours didn't have the hold down the tile thingy. We used it on a marble job in a penthouse on Rittenhouse Square in Philly, big bucks!! We were busting the boss' chops when he bought the thing but after two weeks I didn't want to send it back to the shop. We fell in love with it. The plunge cut was great and the action is smoooooooth. The best was the foldable wings (table extensions) that increased your workspace and helps when cutting big jambs and such. It is a little bulky and I probably wouldn't lug it around as my regular wetsaw but it is a great tool. We've decided to buy one the first job we get with 18 inch marble on point!! The pump housing is great as well as what seemed like a well made switch. Didn't use it long enough to evaluate it's longevity.
