hi there.
iv got a sigma 2g tile cutter. i only forsee useing it intermitently so it will sit idle . also the jobs iv been doing lately are only small ones so other tools are dragged around at the same time.
i know that you can get cases for the larger sigma cutters but i cant find one for a small one. you could put 2 or 3 of mine in one of those cases.


i am about to build one but it will never fit at nicely as a proper one.


anyone out there know where i could get one

thanks in advance

Have you a van?
I have a trafic and have a great spot for my 3B which is my main cutter.
I have it on edge on top of the inner back wheel arch boxing, great spot.

Never seen the need for a case, its plenty strong enough.

the 1st problem is im mostly a carpenter but have been doing a bit of tiling of late. iv only got a small berlingo but its usually full of other tools. alhow very tidy im worried about something falling on it and breaking the fence or something else. id also like to have somewhere to store those little extras that are used with it

the 2nd is im a tool nut and hate damaging my tools or loosing bits of them.

Don't worry Alan, sigmas are as tough as anything.
I don't like getting tools damaged either and even give off to my helper for setting the mixer down the wrong way ! Grrrrr.

I leave my sigma s in the garage when not in use, more for the space in the van than the risk of damage.

I have a tool room in my house, only until it get a study/library.
Nice and secure. I have joinery and tiling tools although I only tile now.

I would leave it unsecured on my roof rack and hope someone nicks it, or it falls off at a roundabout. Sorry guys, couldn't resist a pop. As a Rubi man. All good fun.

At your age Phil nothing would surprise me like that........
Lol.
The only problem with a sigma falling is it wouldn't break. Lol

Changing over to sigma from rubi, but do I go for the big over 1mor the 900mm? Tiles are getting bigger.

Proper tilers have a labourer to do the carrying

Better get used to it ! It happens

Looks deceive Alan... same as Sigmas not really any good,.

and thats why they need a box, which apparently falls apart too...

i wouldnt worry about damaging a sigma, ive been chucking mine in the back of the van for 20yrs, and it still works as good as new..

All my cutters are sigma and my helper is still with me, lol.
Mind you I have to drag him outta bed most mornings.
