Best ring saws for glass, tile and stone

Researched by Deal.ai's shopping agent across stores on November 2, 2026. Prices below are today's.

Top pick: Gryphon Zephyr Ring Saw — the classic hobbyist ring saw. A 1/3 hp direct-drive motor and a ring blade let you cut curves and inside shapes in stained glass, mosaic tile and small stone, and at 19 lbs it's easy to move between projects. Best all-rounder for craft and glass work.

Who the others suit:

  • Gemini Apollo — a step up for regular tile and stone work: bigger 16" diagonal cuts and 3" depth of cut, still manageable in a small shop.
  • Gemini Revolution XT — for serious, near-production cutting: 10" sintered diamond blade and up to 6 cm thick stone, self-contained with no water pump to fuss with.
  • Zephyr Diamond Ring Saw — a budget entry point for light glass and tile cuts; check the voltage and setup before you commit.

Ring saws cut wet, so plan on water and a splash tray wherever you work.
