I figured out how to upload at last :hurray: (I think it was more a problem with my browser to be honest).

It made easy work of 600 x 600 polished porcelain.
Only thing that took a little getting used to was not being able to see where you are cutting very well but if you trust in your own measurements this shouldn't be too much of a problem :thumbsup:
 
Good work, plenty of blue on the new machines.

Your next upgrade will hopefully be a step up from the Draper Value level. :lol:

Lol I keep dropping and wrecking the damn things! That one has already been upgraded and is just a straight edge now 🙂
 
Bought a 3BM 60cm with the max and measured the the cutting distance, you cut a 700cm tile if you take out the measuring bar...
 
That's another handy feature. My 75cm will take 800s if you remove the bar and the 93cm will take a 1m tile.
 
I have used the Rubi Tx 700 and it has great breaking power, the correct diameter wheel required for proper cut, rough tiles require smaller diamter wheels, smooth tiles require larger diameter wheels. In comparison I have the Rubi TI 66, ( with a gold 10 mm wheel) cuts up to 24" tile and has one less step to snap the tile, with great snapping power.
