Hi just starting out in the world of tiling just finished a two weekend course and looking to start doing a few little jobs for myself. Just looking for recommendations for a manual tile cutter. Happy to spend a couple hundred £ or less want something that is a good starter cutter but one that...

I’m doing more and more and don’t want to keep carrying around my big sigma. Any suggestions

A few people have just recently entered the world of Sigma for their tile cutting use, myself included. I thought it would be a good idea to start this thread for any tips on how to use these cutters. For now, here’s a link to the Sigma Beochure which @callatiler kindly posted earlier:-...

Any recommendations for a manual cutter for 9.5mm porcelain floor tile. As DIYer i'm tillinf the kitchen 25m but thats it. I cant envisage doing anymore tiling on this house although i have done a bit before. Im after a reasonable price one although im not adverse to paying out then selling...

Hi guys I'm planning on doing some manual diagonal cuts with porcelain glazed, 600x600x10mm tiles. Problem I'm having is 95% of the tile snaps correctly along the score line but wonders off the line just before the end. This means I'm ruining one half of the the tile. I'm doing envelope cuts...

Hi, bought from tradetiler with the intention of tiling my bathroom with some 60x60 tiles. Changed my mind and went with some 60x90 tiles, so had to go buy another cutter, went for a 3d2 92cm instead. It's not been used other than I couldn't resist having a play when it arrived and cutting up a...

***I suppose we'll get it but this is not intended for the usual Rubi vs Sigma war.*** I can't find one so am guessing the last cutter poll on the forum was back in 2013 when I was still in nappies. :) There has also been a turnover of members, many of which are active but didn't have their...

I'm looking at getting a new manual tile cutter and saw the ergo range at topps tiles the other day. I was originally going to get a Rubi but these Ergos look and feel like a good piece of kit. Has any pros here got or used one and if so is it any good?

Once again turning to the helpful folks on this forum for advice. Rather than using my wet cutter for by bathroom refit (I have approx. 23m to fit and much cutting), I am planning to buy a "normal" cutter as it is going to be much quicker and will save me marching up and down stairs. I'll be...

Anyone used them, my local supplier has started bringing them in and the bridge saws have solid running gear with what seems good motors...don't know about the prices though. Tiling Tools, Cutters and all things tiling. I have no affiliation with this company, link is only for price comparison.

Hi chaps First post so go easy please....lol Run a small family business which has recently been focusing on Bathroom installation. I do all our tiling and have been persevering with my Rubi-TS 50 Plus for years now. I feel I need to purchase something with a bit more power for the porcelains...

Hi all my names Lex and I've been a long time lerker but never posted before. I've had loads of questions and always found the answers so hence the reason not posting. The experience on this forum is invaluable and I've learnt tons. Thanks for your help. I'm originally a plaster/decorator and...

Hi, anyone local ( wolverhampton/ Birmingham ish ) happen to have a 1200 cutter for hire ? Need it in the next few days if not now !! ( last minute change by client who didnt even think to mention it to the tiler ! ):mad:

Hi there. I only do couple of bathrooms a year, but now I have more and more tiling to do. Mostly it's porcelain or stone. I have a sigma 2d4 for 4 years but like to change it to a more accurate cutter as it plays 2mm sometimes and hard to set it square. Thinking of tx700 or sigma equivalent...

Hi all, I am wanting to purchase a manual tile cutter that can cut porcelain tiles 600x300mm. Rubi may be out of my price range. Thank you in advanced.

Hi guys, after some great advice on here a while back I bought a Sigma 3CM MAX from Dave at Trade Tiler (great service by the way). I have now finished with it after very little use so I was wondering what one of these would go for used (albeit only a day or two) and boxed in excellent...

Guys After several years of reading and admiring some of the work being carried out I've taken the plunge to revisit the bathroom and have opted for some 600x300mm porcelain tiles from CTD. So after finally getting round to starting, I dug out the old and what was trusted and please don't...
