Default Re: plasplugs master tiler

Have had a Plasplugs master for about 9 months found it very good initally. Bought a Macrist wheel on the recommendations from this site and this is certainly gives a quicker cut than the plasplugs wheel. Lately I have been finding that it seems to chip the last 3 or 4mm at the end of a cut. I have also tried it with a part used plasplugs wheel and get the same problem.

Am starting to suspect the machine as I have tried different pressures and being very careful at the end of the cut. My suspicions were confirmed when I went back for phase 2 of a flooring job. Phase 1 was a kitchen/diner and phase 2 a utility and corridor. Both were done with the same 600mm square tiles. Phase one was done on a much smaller older machine without any problems.

I wonder if anyone else has had a similar problem. I need to get it right as my most critical customer {the wife} has finally nailed me down to redo our kitchen next month, I don't see the hurry myself she has only been waiting 5 years.
