    Default Decisions Decisions

    Went in to my local swedicor,and saw that they had a rubi TS60PLUS on offer at £190,was going to buy a better cutter (bigger)anyway,so got a budget of approx £250 so is that cutter a good price and a good cutter,or is there better options out there in my budget,cutters i`ve got are a rubi 60 bog standard for small stuff etc etc etc (think its the star great cutter for what it is)and two wet medium/large(not rubi`s i havn`t got that much money ),so thought it was time to add larger cutter for the bigger tiles ie;porecelains etc etc,cheers john
