| Re: rubi 250 wet saw | | Our machine has been cutting out of square, have had to send it back to rubi for them to look at it. A local supplier are knocking them out at about £500 each with a spare wheel as a special offer, have always used sigma's before must admit not impressed at all with the rubi the cutting bed is to narrow and there seems to be to much 'wobble' in the cutting head another local tiler has the same problem. | | |

| i was using my nephews a few weeks back and alot of cuts where off. we put it down to the tiles being out of square but now you mention it, it could be the cutter. spanish tiles where always crap, maybe spanish tools are hey??
should stick to a master tiler by plasplugs. ound for pound they are the best thing on the market. rubi are really overated in my opinion. alot of hype but quality is suspect>> | |

| Re: rubi 250 wet saw | | we finally got ours sorted after it going back to the factory for 2 weeks, came back it was still out of square, so the rep came to site and reset the measuring bar, also the cutting disc it comes supplied with is next to useless on anything but ceramic, I've found that invest in a better quality disc can make a big difference, its certainly not overated now its cutting true its a very good, powerful machine | | |
