You can never have too many tools !

I have been reading alot about tile cutters, and been hearing alot about rubi:smilewinkgrin:, do you have any suggestions on what would be a good one to start off with?.. I dont want to buy one which cant cut big porcelin tiles:mad2:.....?

 

[Gazzer]

If its Rubi you want then the TX range will suit you but i would wait until you have done the course and then you will have had your hands on cutters there. Buy the best you can and if will pay for it self in the long term.

I dont know what make i want or need, just readin from articles on this people seem to prefer Rubi:8:.... i shall speak to the Guys at NETT hopefully they can help me out.. Have you been tiling for long?..:hurray:

 

[Gazzer]

The guys at Nett may try to sell you what they sell, you really ought to try different makes.
Rubi and Husquvarna are roughly the same, as are Sigma and Montolit. The differences being the SIgma/ Montolits are single rail and Rubi and Husquvarnas etc are dual rail except for Rubi`s Ti range which is single.
Some fixers prefer one over the other.

Oh and 32 years

Do you know of any good websites that sell these products preferably at a low price, because i am just starting out and am not working at the moment so dont have alot of money to play with :mad2:..... What tools will i need to start off?... do i need alot?
