That's quite a trick Mark!
How'd you manage to get a duplicate post within a post? Hahaha
 
Hahahaha!......trying to send a message with my son trying to grasp my phone out of my hands!:tonguewink:
A decision has nearly been made so it's looking like I'll be going for the sigma 3P3m max ( will have quick trial at Dave,s place & if all goes well I could be on the sigma train within days !

Mark go for the 3E3M, the extra 25cm or so is well worth it, as you said a lot of your tiles are 1200mm and this will cut them. A 3P3M only copes with metre long tiles
 
Which one did you purchase local?
Good find Kyle , including delivery about £33 cheaper than Tradetiler but I think with Tradetiler being 6 miles away from where I live I'll pay that little bit more, make sure nothing is missing and its in good working order ( test before I buy )......crikey!....finally a decision has been made at last......you happy now Marc :laughing::thumbsup:

Hi Lee, The tiles are actually 1000mm so I'll be okay with the 3p3m as this cuts up to 1005mm.....are you on the sigma train yourself lee ?

I'd take a guess trade tiler would price match or try ur local ctd they always have sigmas on offer

Yes mate I've 9 dry cutters, 3 of which are 3B4's for when we're on large floors with 60x60's which helps when tiling multiple areas at once or for doing stairs and each machine is set for different sizes. For all the difference in price and size I'd advise you go for the 3E3M, it's so much more versitile, especially if you consider the likes of Porcelthin being 1200mm

Crikey Lee!....& here I am currently cracking on with just a tx 700 and a ts 50......thanks for advice mate I'll look at the larger cutter also.....defo 1 of the 2 for sure......had my 700 for 10 years & still in good nick to be fair......
 
Day 2 of the sigma, I'm into it now, it's a lot better than the Rubi, one think I really like is the measuring bar, I can measure cuts and cut them accurately without marking the tile, just using the measuring bar, winner
 
So far so good , cheers for the update local, just out of interest where did you purchase your sigma from?
 
I just wanted to say. ( for the last time).
I used the maxi handle for 2 days, (is not the first time that the use)
My colleague ordered the maxi for error.
I challenge anyone here has used maxi and klick klock. say that maxi is better.
with big, it takes more time and klick klock is narrower, so we can see better the thumbwheel.
Now, if you want to waste time, buy the maxi. so you are happy.
I spent all my time, to speed up the work, with the same result.
and everything with my wallet, sometimes it went well, sometimes not, I did not have a forum to ask and after 5 years of Montolit, 10 years of rubi and 16 years of sigma.
(In 16 years I have changed at least 8/9 sigma. (I always latest models), you want to say that maxi is better than klick klock.
bla bla bla bla, continue with chat, I'm on the test bench. (Work)
sorry, but I'm tired of hearing crap, or are too old, if I can take a break from the forum...
