    Default my little briccolina

    Ive hardly used it in the week ive owned it ,but i think my little briccolina is fab ...... its lightweight and portable,it cuts like butter (only had to cut 10 mm ceramic yet but absolutely no prob ) it seems very robust ,the design is simple yet effective ,it hardly needs much water to fill ,it only makes a little spray and thats out the front and not over the wall and to top it off there was a good wedge off the price!!! happy days

    Hahahah...We are far to posh for that sort of thing down here, a good firm hand shake and a cup of tea on the lawn for us, maybe a game of bowls.

    Good little cutter, do they still require the blade to have a locking/locating hole..? as well as the spindle hole..

    Try Trade Tiler, he supplied me a blade for the briccolina...remember the nib will need grinding down though.

    You can from a supplier who sells the cutter but the reason I ground the nib on mine so it did'nt limit me to where I bought a blade...
