How high was the cut loss?
Did you also try to cut irons?

Hi
They can cut with minimal water stream diameter 0.8mm. Here cut loses was
around 2mm + another 2mm if I want polish surface, so this is not the most
economical method. But they cut my SAU very fast. If they made speed for
lets say 1mm per 1 minute, then surface will be much, much better.

They say that in user manual is written that they can cut iron up to 20cm,
but I think its just marketing only.
Diamond blades are still best for stone meteorites.
