Hey all just wondering has any1 bought a new sigma tile cutter lately with the new box for ease of transport or keeping it tidy in the van for space as well

Heres a link to what im talking about

Tagliapiastrelle SERIE 3, incisione a trazione. |

Someone bought one a while back on here but he said it was HUGE !!!

yes mate!!sigma 5M love it, but i must get the case to keep it in, as i am particuler as to keeping my tool's in good nick!!
thank's for the link!!sparky

Did someone mention Sigma?

has anybody on here got the sigma 5?

the reason i wanted this was for things like laying quarries, hard floor tiles upto 500mm, cutting mosaics etc. the tx700 can be a bit big at times so something that cuts to the size would be a nice addition.

can you set the stop gauge to do diagonals?? i dont want a 3b because of the long measuring arm. just my ts40, sigma 5, tx700 and in the very near future, the sgma 3ek.....then thats it then, full house..

cool yeh im very particular with my tools and tile machines always keep them clean very important i just think that box for storage is a super idea for keeping your van tidy and getting more stuff in it

its hard in ireland to get good tile tools theres 1 place in dundalk that do the sigma with a reasonable price,anything else ill get of tradetiler but shipping rates are killer for big machines and tile sponges which are a rip off
here as well

My 3a dos'nt come with a box but cuts tiles upto 530mm, changed the pull cutter for a click clock push handle...

Those new sigmas are soooooo sexy makes my sigma look an antique but its still going strong!!!!

They have phenomenal cutting wheels

Always wanted to get a click clock never got round to ordering one supposed to greatly increase the breaking power with minimum effort. nice....

I thought it might be a bit weak, how wrong I was

looks like ill be ordering a new sigma :

Aston you would be better off going the 3 series you can set the gauge on the 5 series to do 45 but its much easier on the 3 series just bear in mind tiles are getting bigger so dont skimp on the size when transporting just fold arm past 45 degree mark

thanks for putting me on the right track jay ;0)

its 2010, africa has been freed, the berlin wall has long been demolished, surely we can live in a world where rubi & sigma can share the back of a van lol.....
