What is it about taking 10mm strips off of 1200mm tiles that we find be so satisfying? Haha

Rubi's can't do it lol

I know there was a deal on sigma in CTD free box with some cutters. Its worth giving them a call

 

[mma]

can some one give me some info, I need a new cutter soon and I know you all bum sigma cutters, having watched videos on YouTube, the main 4,points I can see that I'm not sure on are, scoring towards yourself, having to flip down the arm to break the tile, can't see the point of contact between blade and tile, no box!
Rubi doesnt have any of those problems!

I'd just like to say that I've never "bummed" mine. It's better for cutting porcelain tiles IMHO!

Impressive cuts, I'm using 600x600 porcelain today, I have a row of cuts to the ceiling that need 1inch taking off, the Rubi has no chance, I've had to cut them with the grinder. Quite a difference really!

Anybody tried a battipav

I, and the next time around, I think to buy a BATTIPAV.
system equals sigma, only lighter.
the pros and cons, you can read in my trend BATTIPAV.

1. Scoring towards yourself is easy to get use to, but optional.
2. There are two other handle designs that you don't have to flip the handle with.
3. You can in fact see the point of contact between the wheel and tile.
4. You can also get a box .
In the link below have a look at a Sigma 3C3M, which you can get a 24AE handle for as well and also the carry case is art no:43
The 24AE handle is a pull towards you handle which is good for fast cuts.
The 3C3M machine has a push away from you handle with a drop down breaker with a simple action, for breaking the hardest of tiles ( which would laugh at a Rubi)
There is also a Klick Klock handle that you push away then flip the handle to break the tiles, Antonio's preferred choice.
They are all very easy to use and go through tiles very easily, a Rubi is ok for smaller formats and easy cuts, but simply don't compare to a Sigma. It would be the best money you'll have spent in your tiling career

yes, I prefer klick klock on 100 cm.
the 60cm, I the handle to pull
