    Default Rubi ts50plus

    Hi folks

    im having trouble cutting 300x600 black porcelain on my rubi. The tile is too big. Any ideas on what to do, I thought i could mark the cuts and then use masking tape as a guide and take it straight to the wet cutter, without scoring. Is this wise?
    Does anyone have any alternative suggestions, help is much needed.

    Depending on the quality of the wet cutter blade it should cut them fine.
    I only use a wetcutter for angle cuts and short lengths as the blades are expensive ( from my mothers side of the family).
    In the long run it will be cost effective to purchase the larger Rubi 600/700 as these cut with ease.

    I use the Genesis 600 cutter. A good breaking system for porcelain. Not a bad price either.
