second hand rubi tx 700 ...if youve used rubi a long time the sigma will be annoying

I had a rubi tx 700 for long time and sold it and bought a sigma 3c3m . What i found annoying is why didn't i do it sooner

''Plumber'' and ''tight for cash'' in the same sentence.....got to be a wind up????
And for what it's worth... A Sigma is better build quality and will cut porcelain easier than a Rubi(Ex Rubi user)

Have you got a local tile shop that stocks a few different brand cutters, where you can go and have a try of them to see which one you feel comfortable with?

Jimny- how do you work out where to cut your tiles?

If you measure your tiles then a Monty or sigma will definitely be a good option. If you only ever offer up the tile and mark it then a Rubi might be better.

Not an exact science, just my thoughts.

Maybe we should do some kind of poll, who offers and who measures?

I measure 90% of time and transfer it the the Sigma ruler.

I’ve tried offering the tiles up, like I’d been taught all those moons ago, but I keep getting them wedged in the ceiling.
