Hi .

I have decided to take the plunge and invest in a decent cutter , i think i will go for the sigma 3D , i havent used one or know a lot about the different models .

Could some of you fine folk part with some wise words for me please . is the 3D good ?

Its a Sigma so it wil be great.

Moved to tiling tools forum.

awsome cutter max cut length 930mm or you could go go for 3c cut length 750 mm

good gear

thats good to know thanks , really looking forward to it , like a kid lol

I have the 3D, 3B and the 10M.
The 3D is too big for everyday use, most of my work involves 600mm tiles and under so my 3B is my main cutter.
They're all class though.
As above though the 3C is in between my two so would be a good choice too IMO.

wish i had it for the jobs ive done , seemed to get a run of 600mm porc tiles had to do them with a wet saw , you can imagine the pain i suffered : - )

what i ment to ask is, will it be ok for smaller tiles as well , as i didnt have money to buy a good small and large 1 im going to get the large 1

yeah it will be fine but you may want a smaller one later on. I was cutting 200 x 100 with mine today easily.

Have you thought about a Rubi cutter.. much better than any Sigma..





































waits for replies.

it will cut small tiles with ease but it is a big cutter and can be challenging when doing small areas take hillheads advice and look at a smaller one

I have a mate who uses the 3D all the time, even for 10x10's !!!
Boy does he look awkward but he's a great tiler.

the cutting wheels last for ages as well ,

no one biting dave

ok , sounds like good advise , thanks very much , and with regards the rubi , i was very torn on which to get, so it would seem is half the forum lol

I think Dave's *****,lol

good on him

You guys just ashamed to say Rubi rules over the Sigma..

ok, sounds like good advise , thanks very much , as for the rubi i was torn as ive used neither , but from what ive read i think the general opinion seems to swing to sigma lol

NAh.. Montolits are better than Sigma.. trust me..

I'v heard it near takes two to carry a rubi, especiallly the big uns.

1 more Joe..

yeah i saw a vid of a guy using one and he lifted it and nearly fell over ha
