What tile cutter - Tile Advice

[chas]

Ok so I need to get a bigger tile cutter, at the moment using sigma 1200 but lately getting a lot of 1500 tiles.
Thinking of 1500 sigma or perhaps rubies dc250 1500 electric tile cutter.
Any useful opinions are welcome.
Unfortunately tiles are only getting bigger.

What about this Kwik Split Montolit 'Combi-Line 300' and 'FLASH Line' Incision Systems for Scribing and Splitting Tiles up to 3 Metres Long - http://www.kwiksplit.co.uk/acatalog/Montolit-Combi-Line-300.html

I've seen a few posts about the flashline & saying its a cracking cutter.

Sigma do a similar product but will only cut 10mm max I think so might not work with the timber effect tiles.

Sigma for me can cut up to 3 m long

Flashline cuts upto 12mm and 3.2m

All 3.6m of it.

Ive just borrowed 3 falls flashline on my 1500s , it did struggle at times but my tiles were textured and they can be a pain to cut with a sigmathey were rock hard , even my grinder struggled , i used a marcrist blade and a ats blade, both cut them but not easily
Ive no doubt on smooth tiles it would work a treat
Big thanks to the fine gent that is marc for going out of his way to post it and lend it

I think if i had the money id buy the 1500 sigma ,BUT how far do we go buying cutters , theres a 2.4x1.2 tile on the wall at my mates tile shop

I remember when my ts60 was my big cutter and it was only needed once every couple of months.

I liked those days and my back liked them even more.

White grout for walls and grey grout for floors. Nothing else.

No problem Craig, you're welcome.
Oh and the polo's your good lady sent as a thank you, are excellent!
Really nice quality shirts, thanks.
I expect a lot of members have forgotten or aren't even aware that Craig's wife supplies workwear.
