    i,m with Sir Ramic on this one....Sigma all the way..the new breaker system on the sigma 3cm has 1200kg pressure and the wheel gives really fine edges on the cut.

    also you can use your rubber mallet with the Monti give it a whack after you have set up the handle depth..it will cut what ever you put under it..hahaha Monti's rock but sigma's rock harder..lol

    Good luck with your Montolit. I bought one and found it was hopeless with porc, with no case it was a problem to transport, and the cutting wheels were limited to say the least - oh and I could not see pencil marks without leaning to one side! Bought a Rubi TX and never had a problem since!!

    We should have swapped cutters!

    Ive just ordered a monti 63p. looking forward to getting it. Have owned a sigma for 10 yrs and have been pleased with it, but like the look of the extra features the monti provides. ie the flip up slide bar, and the strike adjustment on the strike bar so you cant damge the side of your tile. I am hoping the monti will cut as well and these added features will be a bonus. will give some feed back after the new cutter arrives.
