Best small tile cutter suggestions/recommendations?

[Paul James Farrell]

Hi, new on here....couldn't find an answer already on here.

Anyway, I'm looking for a small tile cutter, probably enough to cut 300mm tile, but maybe smaller, to save me lugging round my 650mm cutter when I'm doing metro tiles etc.

I've seen the sigma 37cm one and the montolit 26A2 and also a 8 inch montolit one too!

Thanks for your help.

If you want to go really small the mini montolit actually works . Not the best cutter in the world but it works ok .

I'm a sigma fanboy and have the mini sigma, but I prefer my mini montolit for metros.

Sorry!

Thanks guys.

I like the size of the mini 22cm montolit but I'm not sure I'd need the lateral size stop end thing for running 8 or 10 tiles of same size.

Plus I'd need a larger cutter for 300-350mm tiles.....

Have a look at Montolit 44p3 cuts up to 440

The idea of a small cutter is quite appealing. I currently only have my big sigma. While wonderful it’s massive for a metro job

Last metro kitchen I did I used my little Bricollina tile saw for every cut, no mess or water everywhere and cuts very quick and clean. Even pushed 600mm porcelain thru it no probs with the better blade in it.

How much are they?

How much are they?

Around the 150 mark

Can you mitre on them?

Can you mitre on them?

Yes very cleanly

I’m a sucker for new kit but I recently bought a rubi nd 200 which is great. Will have to save up a bit now. I will have to get a small dry cutter though

I have the Rubi nd200, the workhorse of tile saws!

It’s really really nice. Easy to keep clean too. The only missing thing I think ( unless I have missed it lol ) is an angle degree marker when tilting the table.

You say that but you get a build of gunge inside the blade guard under the table .

True and it sets hard too. I tend to hose mine down after use. . Clean it all out

On mine the screws for the blade housing have snapped off. Other than that it’s still running good

Easily replaced. I’m lucky in Warwick to have a shop where I can buy one screw. One washer etc. They are great machines

This place is an old school hardware shop. It’s amazing. I love it. It’s local and family run so I get everything I can from them.

I’d like a little one too - smalllest I have is masterpuima 63 - takes up so much room for metros etc!

 

[Blunt Tool]

I use the mini montolit for metros along with my Bricollina wet saw

That’s your little pride and joy, never see a tile go thru it

Was using my TS today...... first time in years.
It winked at me in my garage.
