Thanks for the link. Not exactly a counter-top unit though, and floor space is at a premium.
I may be looking for something that isn't out there - a counter top unit, minimal overspray and capable of cutting hard material. Cost, though a consideration, is not a limiting factor. In the barn setup, I have an HP 18" for slabs, and a Covington 10" slab/trim saw. I'd like to have a small trim saw that I can use indoors during the cooler months (I start to get frostbite when it's below 50).
Still looking.

I'm not sure how closely you looked at the Lortone model TS8 that Tony suggested but with a good blade it will certainly cut hard materials and with the style of plastic hood that that model has (with the open sides for hand trimming) will probably contain spray as good or better than any trim saw on the market.

My trim saw is the Genie trim saw attachment. 8" .032 blade and it uses water. It takes up no space and is easy to install and deinstall.

I would never use my 7 inch tile saw inside but I have often used the MK inside. It does throw some water but nothing like the 7 inch saw.
