One thing I did notice is, if you turn the handle round so you are using it like a Rubi, the measuring bar is upside down! Is there a way to change that?

I use mine like that as well Bri like a rubi, you can do it either way...thats how the measuring bar sits if I'm understanding right???

I mean the numbers are upside down because you are cutting the other way round, hope I'm making sense! Look at Eds pic and you'll see what I mean.

I noticed with my 3DM the measuring bar ai'nt going to allow me to use in restricted areas, that is one major cutter though:thumbsup:

The bars are all interchangable so if you have a 3C for example then that bar will fit on the 3D. Handy if you're working in a tight landing etc.

Interested to know how the two handles compare like for like.

Best way to change it is to stop using it like a Rubi and start using it like a Sigma. :lol:

Cheers Ed, are they much to but separately? Had a good couple of days with the 3dm, however, I have an off cut in the garage of the only tile that has defeated the TX700 and the Sigma couldn't cut it either!

Give it a few weeks practise and then the Sigma will cut it. :lol:

Never had a tile the Sigma hasn't been able to cut but on one occassion I had to scribe it three times before it would break. Thankfully that was the one and only time I'd used that tile. Worse still, I'd only just put a new wheel on it. :lol:

I'm not converted just yet but, I'm impressed. I took your advice and started using it the right (wrong!) way round and it performs much better. Some 800x800's to do next week so that will give me a better idea of how I'll get on with it.
