Has anyone got a proxxon kgs 80 for cutting trims - Tile Advice

[Joshjupp]

Thinking about getting a proxxon for all the trim work who’d got one and are they any good for the money

There’s a few guys Josh, and everyone who has one rates it.
But then at around £300 they should be. 😊

But then you know mitres are the way to go 🤣

I have one and it's excellent. I haven't used it very much but really rate it.

Bought it in B&Q for £30 a couple of years ago, I use it for all metal trim cutting.
Just lay the trim on a price of batten, perfect 45s every time.

Found one for £220 and 100% mitres are the way forward I’ve got 22 splashbacks to do in January and don’t really fancy doing mitres with a hacksaw on all of them

I’ve actually been looking at them this week.........was going to be an early Christmas pressie to myself, but the tight wad in me needs a kick up the ar5e to spend that much on gear that wouldn’t get used loads 🤨

I bought one today £220 with 10 spare blades couldn’t bare the thought of cutting all the trim by hand on 22 splashbacks seeing as half the splashbacks are 1 300x600 tile then brushed trim

Brushed trim, £30 machine.
