Cost effective tile cutter for 600x300 pocelain floor tile cutter

[Colo]

Hello,

I am about to do my bathroom floor and need a porcelain tile cutter.

is the Big Clinker any good as it will only be used infrequently.

Thanks for any help.

If it's a one off job, and you have a grinder or can borrow one, get a decent blade for about 20 quid and Bob's your uncle..!

Thanks for that Andy,

I did try a small angle grinder with a 110mm marcrist diamond blade but it was a terrable cut.

Can you please recommend one i can give a try.

Thanks Andy that looks just the job.

I have an old Ishii Big Clinker and to be honest it does the job. It looks like the Big clinker 2 from screwfix.

I will have a try with that and the angle grinder and see how I get on.

Thanks again

I have a Big Clinker but the one from Topps (which is apparently different) sails through any porcs I have cut with it.

Hello Two-Trowels,

Do Topps still sell The Big Clinker. I would not mind a newer one.
Cheers

Just checked their site and it looks like they have stoped selling it.

Screwfix have got one but its not the original big clinker.
