    Sigma 3e3m

    I have just bought a nice new Sigma 3E3m, I love Sigmas but this one is not quite right. When you put the measuring bar into the machine and push the locating pin to set the bar for straight cuts it is about 3mm out of line over a 1200mm tile. I have to get the square out of the van to set the...

    Bal adhesive

    I know this has been done a thousand times but here goes again. I am after the best price for Bal rapidset flexi I get it for £20.99 from Topps. Does anyone get a better price, if so where from and how much. I'm only trying to get the best price for me and other traders that are paying too much...

    Web site

    Hi all I am in the early stages of speaking to people about web site design. I need a new site, I have only had the vistaprint one up to now but decided it's about time to upgrade to one that may direct traffic to my phone. I have had a few conflicting stories about domain names and being kicked...

    Talk yourself out of work

    I went to a customers house 2 nights ago to price up a job. Job described to me as a small en-suite, builders done all the prep and the walls have all been skimmed and primed ready for tiles..... Should have trusted my instincts right there and then, but you have to give them the benefit don't...

    Knees

    Hi all, I was just wondering what everyone uses as knee protection. Personally I can't wear knee pads because they are so uncomfortable. I just move a cushion around with me, but I am wondering if there is something better??

    Impey course

    I'm booked onto the wet room course at Impey in September, the 20th. I was wondering apart from all the cynical comments is it a good course?? I do understand they will push there own products but I wouldn't expect anything else from a manufacturer run course. Cheers.

    More tools

    I finally think I am done with cutting tools for the moment. Just received my Montolit 63P2 Masterpiuma Evo 2 cutter from TradeTiler today. To go along with my TX900N, and the Dewalt D24000. Gave the Montolit a good test today and I have to say it's an awesome cutter. The wallet can't take any...

    Dewalt D24000

    One Brutus bench saw returned to Topps Tiles yesterday, 3 months old, burned out and falling to pieces. I did a review on these on here back then giving them a reasonable rating for the money. Now though after just 3 short months of use I can honestly say DO NOT BUY ONE!!!!! They do not do what...

    What the customer heard

    Does anyone else get customers like this. What you say versus what they hear? "That needs priming" "Throw some pva on it" "You will need white flexi adhesive for those tiles" "I'll get the adhesive for you my mate can get it cheap, he reckons I just need the grey stuff, and it's cheaper"...

    Tta

    Hi everyone, I am just after advice as to whether or not to join the TTA. Is it just something else to spend your hard earned cash on or a really good organisation to be part of?

    New toy

    So I did make my mind up about a new cutter, a Sigma or a Montolit 600mm both. Then I came across a TX900N used once and not for much. £300 cash. So I changed my mind to buying a Rubi. Different make, different size, funny how things happen. Looks like I have fallen back to the Rubi side of the...

    Topps Travertine

    Has anyone else fit the Travertine from Topps recently. I'm doing a bathroom and wetroom with what should be 600mm x 400mm honed and filled. It's sort of honed and filled, and it's sort of 600 x 400. I don't mind to a point that the cheaper trav is cheaper for a reason but 10mm difference is a...

    Manual cutter

    Hi all, I am in the market for a new cutter, I don't want it for one particular tile or size but would only say it would have to cut 600mm. Wet saw is sorted so I'm good there. I have read all the threads on here but from what I've seen it is impossible to get any answer. Is it really just...
