Hiya New boy here

[Bally]

Hi. Just like to say what a fantastic forum you have here. I'm new to tiling and have just completed my bathroom (I’ve done a couple of kitchen splash backs before and that about all the experience I have. Now I have just finished working for a bank and looking to change my career to wall and floor tiler. I will probably book on a course in a month or so.

The question is what dry cutter would you recommend, I’ve got my eye on a sigma 3B (£258 including post). Would this make a good all-rounder? And possibly a rubi TS 30 for splash backs. Any advice would be welcome.

Thanks bally

Hi and welcome

Bought a sigma recently and found it cuts well but it's a pull cut, as I have rubi as well still find it strange when using.

welcome Bally, why not wait until after your course, you might have a better idea by then. Don't rely on tiling as your sole income straight away though, tough going at the moment for a lot of tilers

:welcome:Bally - I worked in a bank 39 years ago and then went into tiling!
There was a slump in the building industry then as well.
This is the best job in the world - so enjoy your future.
