you can by a case for the sigmas now quite pricey though about 120 i think

My 3D has been cutting 800x800x12mm this week really well.
Best cutters on market IMO,
A mountain biker mate of mine bought a 60cm model last night second hand for 50 quid,i reckon its about 10 years old but still cutting great!!!

i have tbo, i agree sigma and montolit for that matter are excellent cutters but, doesnt it ever get you down having to bang the breaking handle with the palm of your hand time and time again to create a shock to break porcelain..that was one of the reasons i sold my montolits and kept with rubi.....i do envy you sigma users because they are all in all the best cutters if you get on with them....cant say i'm unfair or rubi biased with that appraisal

 

[Gazzer]

Cant really say i have to bang the handle down, just a slight push and its done

 

[hillhead]

I do bang the handle Ed,just on the hard porcelains.Everything else with a bit of pressure.
I love a wee monty too though
everyone to their own i say.
