Whats a Sigma 600 ?

 

[brian c]

now,now Neale!
Just been using them for the last few months and find them faster and easier than rubi and Husqvarnas.

 

[Gazzer]

Yes but never heard of a 600 ???
usually things like 5a 5b 3b etc

Oh did i tell you i just bought a brand new Sigma 5b for £80 :smilewinkgrin:

Aint they just great

 

[brian c]

yes m8 they are,its the 600mm size whatever model that is.I also think they are more robust than other dry cutters.

Had mine almost 9 years and still going strong.

had a go on the 3d 93cm the other day and i have to admit its extremely well made so used to the rail cutters and pushing istead of pulling but i think i will also buy one too!

I know you love the sigma range Joe as much as I do, I could never change to another cutter, tried them all and sigma comes out on top so many times.
I helped a mate do a display in his shop today, he has a big clinker type thingy, waste of money and time.

Sorry Brian i meant buy the 3B,63cm.

 

[brian c]

picking it up tomorrow Joe.I will in time buy another smaller sigma in the near future.These machines absolutely laugh at the toughest porcelain around,so i need them for my steps lads..lol:lol:

 

[nybor62]

had mine 9 yrs still on same wheel lol

 

[nybor62]

you can by a case for the sigmas now quite pricey though about 120 i think

 

[hillhead]

My 3D has been cutting 800x800x12mm this week really well.
Best cutters on market IMO,
A mountain biker mate of mine bought a 60cm model last night second hand for 50 quid,i reckon its about 10 years old but still cutting great!!!

 

[Aston]

i have tbo, i agree sigma and montolit for that matter are excellent cutters but, doesnt it ever get you down having to bang the breaking handle with the palm of your hand time and time again to create a shock to break porcelain..that was one of the reasons i sold my montolits and kept with rubi.....i do envy you sigma users because they are all in all the best cutters if you get on with them....cant say i'm unfair or rubi biased with that appraisal

 

[Gazzer]

Cant really say i have to bang the handle down, just a slight push and its done

 

[hillhead]

I do bang the handle Ed,just on the hard porcelains.Everything else with a bit of pressure.
I love a wee monty too though
everyone to their own i say.

 

[Scott]

I am going to buy a Sigma, decided today when talking to Whitebeam. My rubi (ts50plus) is pants at porcelain. I need the beter snapping foot!

 

[Aston]

my sigma line up would be......

sigma 6
sigma 5b
sigma 75cm
sigma 125ek
