    Default Old Rubi TR600

    Hi

    Been given an old TR600 that was in a right state Anyway, I have cleaned it up a treat. Thing is the main base and rails are good nick, but the cutter/snapper head are a bit slack and I cannot tighten these up.

    Is it poss to get an old type cutter/snapper on its own?????

    Maybe Neil at BB Tools or Dave at Trade Tiler could help? again

    Your like my grandad CJ, he takes things apart to repair them, and ends up with a pile of bits left over when he's put it back together, which he then looks at, and says, there all extra bits in there to push up the price, there not really needed, he then chucks them in the bin .
