Yo! Greetings from chilly Northeastern Québec. Girlfriend and I just collect rocks we like on beaches, mostly Gaspé area, Nova Scotia this summer. In an effort to bring less home, I am bringing along a portable wet tile saw, but would like to build a small wet polisher ( expanding drum type, 110v also).  Anybody ever try this ?
Which forum do I post this type of request on to reach do-it-yourselfers?
Thanks for your time !
