rubi or sigma... cutters

[Sigma UK]

Each to their own really if it works for you. Why don't we way up the features of each machine and there benefits to the user?. I will start.

MAX handle example.
1. Single rail multi point breaker
2. 1200kg breaking power
3. No mark protectors on the feet "so no marks on polished porcelain"
4. Height adjustable centre rail for cuts up to 20mm
5. No gaps between the feet. "good for thin cuts and small sheet mosaics including glass.
6. Swivel measuring guide as standard
7. Sprung alloy base
8. 19mm carbide scoring wheel set around bearings for a smoother cut. also held in place with a nut and bolt so no play on the wheel.
9. Dampened thrust handle allows smooth cutting of tiles with a rough surface.
10. strong design "no case required".
11. Bed sizes from 37cm all the way to 151cm
12. Interchangeable parts

Who's next then?.
