    Default Which little cutter

    So, i've finally become fed up of humping the husky tc670 around to those kitchen splash back jobs, setting it up on a hop up cos it wont fit on the worktop etc,

    Any recommendations for a smaller cutter for kitchen splash's, probably around the 30 - 40cm mark.

    I want a good combo of price and usability, i dont want to spend a massive amount cos im tight.

    For small format ceramics I use a Montolit 24. Does a good job and you can fit it in your pocket . Cost £26 'ish new!
