| Going to get a new Rubi, but which one? | | Options are Rubi TI-66-S or the Rubi TS-60 Plus.
What would you choose and why, I'm not worried about weight, just need it to be a good all-rounder. Not fussed about single or twin rail, as long as it cuts and breaks well I'll get used to it.
Cheers people  | |

| Re: Going to get a new Rubi, but which one? | | No reason really, but the amount of happy customers must be testament to the quality of there tools.
I have no reason not to pick another brand, as long as they are as good and have the same reputation. | |

| Re: Going to get a new Rubi, but which one? | | Thanks for the suggestions guys. So do I go for the TX or TI. It would appear the TS is not what I am looking for. Are the Husky's better than Rubi, those that have used both? | |

The montolit you can adjust the breaker mechanism so you don't "crush" the tile. I don't know if the Rubi has this facility.....Dave? |
