    fortingall (near aberfeldy)anywhere near you andy? I was working up there for about 3 months earlier this year, glad i didn't need tx1200 then, would have needed a bloody petrol tanker following me by sound of it!!

    TX1200-N is just like a longer Tx700-N

    Some kinds of porcelain will always veer off.

    Rubi's TX's have a better chance than most tile cutters at cutting difficult porcelain successfully though

    cheers for that Dave.My tx 700n is a belter, although it did struggle on v&b porcelain tiles,22mm wheel (I think I got that off you) helped.Just waiting on tile spec coming through on 6 bathrooms (in 1 house!) where I'm pretty sure they'll be using metre long tiles,if that's so will be placing order with you
