Best 600 tile cutter

[Albert]

Albert simply out of interest have you ever tried Sigmas?

I have and they are good machines but Rubi works better for me

 

[Albert]

I think the debate about Sigma and Rubi will carry on for ever
but for me, if i came across a machine that worked better regardless
of its make then i would use it.

Sigma for me. Preferably push to score. Then you're only choosing between

What parts do you need for your existing machine to be fixed?

Try this site for spares........LINKY

You Star! Had tried BuyBrandTools and got nowhere so didn't try anywhere else, found the breaker unit here! My Rubi can live on a bit longer (although I will be trying the Sigma when it finally dies)!

Thanks everyone for your input, I really appreciate your time and advice

Hi Geoff, no that's a new one on me. Will have a look on Google, thanks for the heads up.

I've not long gone on to a sigma for 600 mm porcelain. My old rubi is okay for small tiles but I'm impressed with the sigma. Porcelain cuts like a dream

Just thought how long ago it was since i owned a sigma.
Some of you will remember when porcelanosa first started flooding
us with some rather big tiles, 200 x 150 onice marfill all of
us tilers had problems cutting them, until then most tiles where
cut with a hand scriber, but everyone struggled with these new big tiles.
The then owner of CTD, one Graham Carter imported a load
of cutters, this was my introduction to Sigma.That was late 70s
early eighties.

Hello and welcome to the forum,
Have you had a look at montolit

Cheers Adey, tried someone's montolit a while back and liked it but ended up with a Rubi, think it was on offer at CTD and couldn't afford to pass it up

That's a bit like saying if you used to a horse and cart stay with it . I'm not saying rubi is like horse and cart it' about not evolving

But no point in changing if her Rubi still does what it can do for her.

That is bad business acumen. I have used Rubi and Sigma for 30 odd years....... both cutters have merits.

Sorry I misunderstood what you were saying. I read it as never change if you are used to using something . Not keep it going while it is ok .
