Gemini Taurus 3 Diamond Ring Saw

I was skeptical, but it seems well designed and my wife loves it. Eliminates glass waste by an amazing amount!

It takes some getting use to but overall works great

This was a Replacement for a very old Taurus 2 used in my glass studio for years, It was Very easy to set up and ready to use in minutes. Much quieter than my old saw and seems to cut much more efficiently. I love the light feature

This was to replace a glass saw my wife uses for stained glass projects. The previous saw did not work well for her. This Gemini saw was the one she used in her classes, she said it works much better than her previous saw. Also, her work shows it!

This is my second Taurus ring saw, as I work in stain glass. Not cheap, but darn, you will love it and wouldnt go to any other model.

I LOVE THIS SAW! I have been making glass panels and fusing glass for 15 years and have been cutting everything by hand. I FINALLY got this Taurus 3 Ring Saw as a gift (I told my husband exactly what i wanted), and it has been the best gift EVER!! Why did I wait so long?! Deep cuts? No problem! No more worrying about expensive glass breaking “wrong”. It’s an expensive tool, yes, but Oh My God... it is FREAKIN AWESOME!!

This machine had helped my stained glass cutting abilities so much. I was stalled in making a project because the cuts were too difficult. I can now cut the v shapes I need.

This is the 2nd Gemini saw for us. FYI this is not their newest version but there’s not much difference between them. Also it does NOT come with a standard blade as represented. It comes with a ‘mega’ blade which maybe durable but not the best for glass cutting. We replaced the blade and the mega blade that came with the saw had rust spots perhaps indicating that the unit’s been around for awhile. Still it’s the same rugged unit and Taurus is a great company to work with. 1 star off for cheating us out of a useful blade.

This is my first ring saw. For those of us who are used to using a band saw this takes a little practice learning how to go around the blade and not just a straight vertical pull. Its ja little less than 10 lbs and at barely 18 wide it fits nicely on my kitchen counter next to my grinder. The customer Service rep (Barbara) is amazing, and wonderfully patient. My red water tub didnt have a water level line. Use 1 gallon of water so that it comes up to the middle of the lowest blue wheel (see page 5 - bottom of unpacking your machine column). The gray curved piece with the two red gear wheels is a blade stabilizer. When it comes out of the box its at its lowest position. I unscrewed the side Phillips screw and raised it up as high as it would go and then tightened it so that the blade was visible and there was room to move the glass around the blade. (see page 10 )

This is just what I expected. Works great! Noisy. I’m into stained Glass…this allows me to cut hard pieces…stars, alphabet letters etc…
