Anyone recommend a DECENT cutter?

Stuck between 2 cutters, Rubi tx 70 or Sigma 3C2M ?? Always had rubi cutters but Sigma seems to have better spec and breaking pressure and can cut longer tiles than the TX Rubi...... ( Think I have answered my own question haha..

Sounds like you have 2020Tiling.....

If your up north then why not call into westerhope and have a play on his sigma machines.

Hi there, received my new 3C2M Max cutter from Tradetiler after reading recommendations on the forum. Although the machine cuts OK, I have a problem with the measuring bar. The fixing pin is not dead on center of the scale. So when I cut with the guide on the left I get accurate cuts but when I switch it to the right my cuts are out by between 1mm & 1.5mm. This is a pain if I forget to allow for this as I have to cut another tile. I would like to know whether you guys consider that within tolerance or if mine is faulty?

I'm looking to buy a dry cutter and the Sigma 3C2M was high on my list, however after reading this thread - particularly the last one by the OP, I'm having my doubts.

2020 - did you manage to correct this issue or is it just a case of having to live with it?
