Who’s going to be the first to post a video of doing a cut, one of the experts?

Come in 20-30mm and scribe toward fence first (backward) then you can come in a few mm and scribe as normal.

A few people have just recently entered the world of Sigma for their tile cutting use, myself included.

I thought it would be a good idea to start this thread for any tips on how to use these cutters.

For now, here’s a link to the Sigma Beochure which @callatiler kindly posted earlier:-

Guys- does the Montolit mosaic Matt fit the Sigma ?

I use the montolit mosaic mat on sigma 66cm.
with larger sizes I do not know,

 

[Waluigi]

Thanks, I’ll have a look when I get home. I have the Montolit Matt already

Well, that’s was interesting. I just spent the last hour cutting various thickness, hardness and texture porcelain with my new cutter.
I now understand the fuss about sigma being best, it’s effing amazing. Wasn’t 100perfect on heavily textured but on 10mm polished or matt porc it’s just incredible. Managed to cut 600 x 300 down to 10mm rips with ease
Cheers lads for suggesting it

which sigma do you have bopster?

 

[J Sid]

will this mat thingy fit on my Rubi?

Can I join in!

Does anyone bother with the case for the sigmas? I looked at one and they are big. Also with sigmas being built like tanks I didn’t bother

 

[Boggs]

It’s much more substantial than I imagined.

Makes the TS look like one of those cheap plastic cutters.

 

[Bill]

no but not they have one to fit mine

to be fair - the TS is not competing with the sigmas as such.

 

[acaciaguy]

How big is yours

 

[Boggs]

It’s not how big it is it’s how you use it!

 

[Bill]

It’s not how big it is it’s how you use it!

They're big but you don't need lube..........

 

[Boggs]

Oh my god! This thing is so hard to use!!!
Been sat here cutting all manner of tiles, can’t get it to cut right at all!!!!!!’
