Alway problems substituting other brand blades - and can't find PC replacement blades - can anyone confirm good to excellent substitute?

I've tried several after market blades with this saw. The problem I've experienced is the original PC blade produces a slightly wider cut, allowing the tile to get past the guard support in the back. The blades I've tried produce a thinner cut that prevent the tile from passing around the guard support. I'll try the Pearl P4 7 inch to see if it works, although 50$ is a gamble I'd rather not bet on.

can the saw cut 24 inch long rip cuts on 12x24 inch marble

No, the sliding infeed table only slides back enough to handle just over a 12 inch cut. You can do cross cuts on the 12x24, but not rip cuts. There is no provision for a rip fence.

I bought as Xmas gift and just got around to using it and no mitre square in box. Is it hidden somewhere in the saw housing?

I believe it's attached to the back. In all honesty, I tried using it and found it easier to just hold the tiles at the right angle. That miter gauge is cheesy. Pro tip: if cutting large tiles at angle, remove grippy handle from right side with torx driver. The tile will hit it where it overhangs.

how thick will this cut

I would say 1:4, if you are cutting porcelain that thick take it slow, natural stone will cut easier. I highly recommend this saw, I use it for small jobs, it’s really great in tight spaces. In my opinion it’s the better of the smaller wet saws as I prefer a rolling table for more accurate cuts. I however use an MK on my bigger jobs and large format tile and stone and it’s a beast with no limitations but cost about 10x what this saw cost. I do a lot of baths and kitchens and I love it!
