This is where Trade days come in handy ... no cost to the store but exposure for Sigma to that stores tilers.
So if i went to one of your customers and they were asking lets say £105 inc p&p but I collected surely I would get it cheaper than that due to the fact I collected it ? Thats all i want, a shop in my area selling Sigma cutters......in fact any shop that I pass while on my travels will do
why don't you just ring diatech and ask mark stanley if he will do the deal that you are looking for? worth a try isnt it??
To be honest, i have bought from them before on a few occassions but never felt they were that interested. Rather than a tin of shortbread just give me a discount.
Shortbread?. I think some stores are going to be offering free T's, caps etc.. with every order soon. I know some retailers have been asking me for boxes of them. We only have small left now and they are good for nothing. Can't even get one over my head. They should do a create of lager instead.
Derek, it was ages ago.. Not been on your site in a while mate.
On a different note... I know your cutters don't come with boxes, but can you buy them separately?
You can but the boxes will only take a cutter up to 75cm. And they are made wider so you can also put in trowels, floats, knee pads etc.. They are good but we don't sell a great deal of them. I think most people who use Sigma know it takes a fair bit to destroy them.
Thats one of the reasons i went for sigma, its very robust, when you just look at the sigma one of the things you notice is every single component on it looks and feels unbreakable.
Btw, im becoming more impressed with the breaking power of the 3D, was cutting 4mm off a 400 x 200 ceramic today.
They are pretty strong yes. I was at HTW down south changing a handle on a 15yr old cutter still going strong but the handle was warn inside. You couldn't see any numbers on the guide bar and it was covered in addy but swapped the handle gave it a little clean and away it went again.
I have the same with a very old Sigma but I guess it really is time to swap it for the 2G , plus 2g has an adjustable measuring guide where as the old one doesnt. Still cuts fine though.
tell you one thing these sigma rubi threads have revealed, hardly anyone seems to be using montolit anymore.
i would consider getting a sigma if i knew where i could try one out any stockists/trade days in scotland anyone know of for sigma?
bought another new rubi at xmas and although far better than last one still not 100 percent impressed i could be persuaded to go elsewhere

Yeah i gather they are pretty robust. Not really my concern though.. The box is more for keeping things tidy, and being able to stack etc. I've been offered a 900mm Sigma (no idea what model) for £50, as it's been sat in some guys shed since he bought it to tile his bathroom years ago. I figure for that money, it doesn't reeally matter what model it is! Gonna be too big for a box though, so might have to get a Rubi lol!
For £50 I will take it his hands!. It will probably be the 3D model. Not sure if our cutters will fit in a Rubi box though?:lol:
