Default call out from a dinosaur.....

ok all you tiling techies out there this tiling dino is eating humble pie and asking for advice..jesus that sticks in my throat..lol.. just done a 100 m2 floor with 5 diff sizes of 10mm unpolished porcelaine ranging from 200 x 300 to 600 x 600 now here lies the prob the jobs done and it looks the dogs..but i had a right nightmare cutting the B*****ds ok on the bridge saw but what a nightmare on the rubi TS60 scoring fine, snapping no way hosay all over the place had to resort to the old score and snap over the knee....yes painfull when the tile didnt go first time but nevertheless a perfect break...on the tile not the knee. however its time to reinvest in a cutter that will cut these sorts of tiles a little easier as the rubi is fine on polished but not these sneaky little buggers.So my question is this which cutter is the miracle worker.
your Humbely DINOSMURF.

My option for you is the TX700n.........I have the ts50+ for splash backs etc but the TX is the jobby for those hard buggers........

Montolit for me. Very neat cuts, fast, and they're lighter than Rubi cutters.
