Before I buy a wet tile saw ...

If you're still thinking the wet-tile saw option, you shouldn't have to spend more than $80 or so. Have a look here: http://www.princessauto.com/pal/en/7...-Saw/8000365.p I bought mine from Rona a couple years back on sale, but same price.

I've used my 7" cheap tile saw on corals, works OK and if its not deep enough it breaks easy, the coral that is, blade will rust really bad if you don't clean and dry it after.

Ya, that's about the same as the 7" one from Canuck Tire
I just don't like the metal table top
And twice the price for only another 3/8" cutting depth

Table top style ?

The more I think about it, the more I'm leaning towards a bandsaw
But it has to be wet

Then get your wallet out because that don't come cheap.

To be honest i have looked for couple months before I decided to go for a bandsaw with a diamond blade. The only downfall I have IS that my saw only gives me 3.5 or 4" of cutting thickness.
For rocks cutting I used a shop wet saw in the past 18" blade but its too $$ and commercially. ..
for cutting rocks in half there are many tools that could be used it all depends on what level of cutting you really want. .
Diamond blade grinder I always have on hand for rocks and I seen people using one on coeals (not at all my recomendation) but for couple cuts on the back side of the coral its fine.
