    Default Manual tile cutter

    Hi everybody hope you can help, I'm after a new manual tile cutter I currently have a Rubi TS30 and a Rubi TS60 plus.
    I have got a kitchen to fit in 4 weeks time and the customer wants mosaics fitted, so I'm now in the market for a new manual cutter similar to the Montolit type IE single rail able to cut mosaics. 50 to 60cm length of cut.
    Hoping you can recomend the different makes of similar design preferably with a case.

    Thanks
    Richard

    Sigma do good cutters.

    Have I ever mentioned that fact?

    Often!

    Mosaics 50-60cm in length! I'd just use my Rubi30 and move them along.

    Hi guys thanks for the replies, had a look at the Sigma and the Montolit on the web they both look very similar, is there much difference in build quality as they are both priced roughly about the same.
    Box would be nice, but not essential

    No problem at all, press too hard on the handle and it will cut clean through without having to break snap them.
