| Re: Help with tools?? | | Get yourself down to Ceramic Tile Distributors
They are doing a deal on the genesis 600 mm flat bed cutter, 79 pounds. Will do you for most tiles for now. Also, on E-bay, you get alot of Rubi TS30 cutters, I got mine for 70 pounds , and is in A1 condition. | | |

| Re: Help with tools?? | | And of course don't forget to checkout Rubi Tile Cutters, Scaffolding Tools, Tape Measures & Measuring Tools UK who will be able to help you out too with selection and pricing.
You could do with making sure you have your trowels and cutting gear to make a start though. Anything else you may be able to buy as and when you need them in the near future. | Dan  |

| Re: Help with tools?? | | And put £39.99 aside to make sure you get perfect holes into any tile.
If you use them on ceramics they last for ages. Use this link to fast track order
