Are you & @James De undercover Rubi spys set to tarnish Sigmas reputation!??

They should pay me

 

[Bopster]

which sigma do you have bopster?

I got a 3D3M
Its a big old beast but now im looking forward rather than being concerned to seeing how it deals with some 900 polished porc next week

I've got a query on my Sigma that I've been meaning to ask, when fitting the measuring bar and you try to zero it by pushing down on the spring loaded knob into the ident, on mine there is a lot of play and you can tighten down off zero.

The spring toggle is adjustable, probably come loose?

I've left it at my job but I will see, you push it down and you can still rock the measuring bar a bit each way and the knob hits either side of the ident.

Get a square against the fence and have a look to see how parallel it is with the rail. Then drop the scoring wheel and offer the square up to it and see if it stays true at the top and bottom of the cutter.

Just saw that cutter on the link that callatiler posted, Plan Tec

 

[acaciaguy]

Best for hard porc? One that will cut any tile given to it ( I appreciate the different sizes that you can get)?

 

[Waluigi]

The max series I guess.

Which size tile would be the biggest you are likely to fit, acaciaguy?

 

[acaciaguy]

1000 length to be fair. And if larger I could hire or use a grinder. Or just turn job down more than likely

What size do you fit max?

I’m happy to buy larger just in case. I like to buy well and future proof

 

[Bopster]

I chose the max coz i just didn`t fancy the pull version as only ever had push cutters. Klick klock probably just as well suited though
