Advice for new electric cutter - Tile Advice

[Andy Allen]

I bought the new one in Topps that has replaced the vitrex pro 750 and I think it is quality. good design and comes with a cover to protect the blade and guard when in the back of van etc. got the rubi CPC blade in it and it works a treat on porce.

Even better if they have updated it...

Yeah its slightly bigger, much more sturdy and better built. the lid is great and fits around the guide bar and no need to remove guard for blade. bench stop stops the cutter moving backwards when pushing big tiles through. well impressed with it to be honest. Anyone know of any blades better than the rubi CPC for it?

The Norton TT200em is s decent budget cutter, you can pick one up for around £135 bit more expensive than the vitrex 750 but its worth considering....heres a video

I got a Rubi nd200 and I bought a plastic mixing tray to go underneath to catch any water and splills so I can use it indoors

I got the tip from someone on the forum, when I was looking for a new wet cutter.
The mixing tray is available in b&q etc about £17.
It's also good to mix your adhesive on if your labourer is a bit sloppy in mixing

Been using one for a number of years and get yourself a plastic 9" painters tray to replace the water reservoir that comes with the cutter, it allows you to fill up more easily when water gets low.

I got my ND180 really cheap from work. Used it a few times. Hated it. Wish I hadn't got it.

Now I have a predicament..... Do I boot it over into next doors garden and pretend it wasn't me, Or do I list in on ebay, listing the good points which will all be lies and feel guilty for whoever buys it from me?

In the meantime, sticking with the angle grinder.

Sell it ....Someone out there will want it...it's up to the buyers to do there research..

Gents - many thanks for your advice. I'll follow up on all suggestions and hopefully find something idiot-proof.

Thanks again!

Guys - sincere thanks for your suggestions. I thought I had posted my thanks last week but it seems my post got lost.

Thanks again.
