Buy a 3e3m sigma

I’ve seen those.. are they hard to use? They look monsterous haha

if it's a one off job use your grinder with a good blade, if you think you will be doing more this size in the future then look at a sigma type as Geoff recommends

Very easy to use but are massive! It pays for itself after a couple of jobs. Worth every penny IMO

 

[James De]

I’m sure it won’t be the last time, plus I’m not that straight acutterwitg grinders. Anyone know a London based stockist as I need it for tomorrow?? CTD don’t stock them, can’t find anywhere else

Off to Northampton I go to get a 3e4m (3e3m no longer available)

£519 yeah the wife gave me ‘the look’ when I brought it in tonight.. basically mine needs to find a home in my van

A few on here are new sigma owners so would be good to share tips on how to use.

I actually got it from pro tiler tools (forum sponsor).. didn’t know they were a sponsor until just now.. should have asked for a discount

That would be good. The sales rep let me cut a small section of porcelain on one they have on show..

Ok so I’m trying to snap this bad boy and it ain’t snapping.. I ain’t exactly he-man but I’m no penfold either.. so do I just adding pressure to my ‘snaps’ until it breaks (or I break my wrist)?

 

[WetSaw]

You "tap" rather than "press" the breaker bar.
