    Default Big Clinker

    Hi.
    I have just bought a 25" Big Clinker for cutting Travertine tiles 60cm X 40.5cm & 1.2cm thick. Can anyone suggest what setting would be the best for scoring the tiles. (settings are from 0 - 4). I had a trial run with it using setting one and the tile cut quite nicely but I had to score it twice. (I don't know if I was just a little hesitant and didn't press down hard enough).

    Would really appreciate your recommendations!

    Cheers
