best part about the rubis are the wheels they have a wheel for every material in the world...i think

the push handle seems to be the best thing for the long term as well never realized the awkward tourque we put on our wrists with pull cuters til i switched to rubis

Sure that the 700 is a super piece of kit I use Ti66 i know theres no case but dont dismiss it out of hand, a good piece of kit

I've got a TS 50 plus which I find quite good but limited. Has anyone got a suggestion on cutting mosaics using a Rubi ( either stone or ceramic )

Yes - don't!

Get a montolit with the mosaic mat and you're laffing.
(The secret is the moveable breaker)

I just picked up my Montoli P75 yesterday.
I wish I had it from day one now. It really is THAT good.
So mamy things are right about this cutter, I will try and make time to post a review and pics in the tools section some time this weekend.....!

was always a huge fan of my sigma for years it was more reliable than the mrs,once you got the hang of the cutting line it was really easy to use,but compared to value for the big clinker another that is also really easy to use(very similar so not much time taken to get used to it) so at a fraction of the price i would opt for the big clinker!
