Montolit cutter demo

[GoneGuy]

was passing a tile shop today and seen a tent outside so thought I would pop in open a trade account and see what was going on,
There was a nice man from Italy doing demo for montolit cutters, I got to say I was very impressed with it especially cutting thin strips of porcelain.

 

[Italy]

Is giuseppe maffei.
, he likes to be alone

 

[Italy]

You must tell him you know antonio ...
perhaps it gives you a tile cutter Montolit. Free

What sizes? Im thinking of getting the 63

 

[Flintstone]

Didn't take much convincing! 10 mins with the smooth talking Italian and them rubis are moments from retirement

 

[GoneGuy]

Isn't the sigma based on the montolit ?
The demo was a much better one than the Rubi one I seen last week.
Rubi only demo cutting porcelain tiles. Where as Giuseppe showed how it cut porcelain, mosaics and small cuts etc only down side is that it don't come with a case

 

[Flintstone]

Sigma do a seperate case, I bought one for my larger sigma, 3c3m, which I recommend for you!

 

[Dumbo]

3c3m way to go . I do quite a few 660mm long tiles actually did some today

I got the 63 first.

Then was after a small kitchen splashback sized cutter. (44)

After using Rubi's for years, the montys take a bit of getting used to. Going from twin bar Rubi, to single bar, does take a bit of getting used to. Harder to see pencil marks.

They do cut nice though.

They do a canvas type cover for the head of the cutter. A hard case would be nice, but then the handle would need detaching???

 

[Flintstone]

I'm sure that would fit in a sigma box. The handle stays on. If somebody wants to post a photo of the bottom of the cutter I can tell you if it's likely to fit

 

[Dumbo]

I had a monti and must say sigma cutting wheel easier to see

I moved from Monti to Sigma and I wouldn't go back.
