I have bought a Sigma 3B4M max tile cutter and been watching a few videos on YouTube.
It came delivered with the handle assembled so that you would push away from the measure bar (or pull towards).
One of the YouTube videos that I have seen says to remove the handle, turn it around, so that...
well I have managed to use my new laser measure tonight and it is so much easier and quicker than using a tape measure and calculator to work out Sq metres.
It is also small lightweight and very easy to use.
