tressels are around £10 each.

tiles are just getting bigger and bigger these days, a table is no good half the time as the overhang needs supporting, ijust use mine on the floor.



Use mine in a sand/cement mixing tray

mine has legs, (altho I do same way as Brian most of the time
)
i have one of those youngman hop ups,
i basically measured the outside area of the youngman,got a bit of ply and some 2x1 and battened the 2x1 to the ply.
now i have a "table top" i put on my youngman when needed!!
it works a treat and is easy to carry as it locks on to my hop up!!!
ill take some photos later!

got mine on a Workmate - when you take the cutter off you can use it like a ..... eeerrrrrm ... like a Workmate!![]()
you can get cheepo Workmate copies now. Also got a set of 4 quick adjust G clamps from Screwfix, you can clamp your tiles down and nibble and drill them easy - cant do that too easy with an ally bench.
is there only me who prefers to work at floor height? just find it better and more suitable. how do you lot cut 600mm tiles etc resting on a table etc. my tile cutters have little add ons that you can rest the tiles on while you cut them.
if you see on the side of the tx 1200 sean, there's two sets of outriggers, (only one set on the 700) these support the tiles as you cut them![]()
