    Default cutting compressed firbo

    here is our setup cutting compressed fibro sheeting.

    the cladding panel is 9mm james hardie exotec compressed sheets.

    we are using a 160mm diamond blade, the vacum is a fein that i have had for years.

    the long rips are being done with a 3000mt rail and the short cuts with the 1400 rail.

    our version of the MFC is a plasterboard pallet on some scaffold crates.
