Hi all, Im looking to buy my first big wet cutter for the business as i now have the size job to warant it, i dont want to spend any more that £600, iv been looking at the rubi cutters but their are so many different ones and types with bells and wistles but dont know which one? So can any one recomend one, but also why?

Cheers for any help.

i personally use a kinzo cutter,only because it was the only one i could afford at the time.it has served me incredibly well and has cut thousands of meters of tile, granted most being trav.but i am still on the first blade!!and replacement blades are hard to get, but found a really helpfull shop where they only charged me a couple of quid.
also have a couple of spare cutters only cheap ones as the kinzo only cost about 150

Do a search sranners mate, this topic is always coming up and there has been loads of advice and opinions.

You don't say what size the job or the tiles are!

I have the DU200L and its the mutts nutts, however I have only ever owned 1 bridge saw so I couldnt really compare. I think the DW250 is a bit better.

burncross

are the husqavarna bridge saw's any good ?? there more expensive than the rubi's

i'v got a dw200n, put a marcrist blade on it, superb tool, brill with porcelain, pluge cutting, and mitreing, plus its got fold away legs and wheels. Also been told you can cut a 900 tile with it.

sranners

Thanks for the advice guys, i think im going to go for the rubi dw250n, how do you cut a 900 tile on a 200 cutter then? sounds interesting.
First job with it will be slate.

poynton phil

Well, i was told you can fit a 900 tile on the bed, then you plunge cut into the middle of the tile then cut as normal to the edge. Turn tile round carefully, and repeat. Not tried it yet, sounds ok

the 200does'nt mean the tile size it can cut it's the model number.

No the 200 is nothing to do with the size of tile. I have the DU200 and it cutts up to 700mm
