Rubi ts-60 plus

[fluidthegreat]

I have bought a Rubi ts 60 plus for my first cutter and have just started out tiling. I just wondered if anyone else has one or used one and what they think of it?. I like it but its very bulky.

cheers

I have a TS-70 plus. Great cutter IMO and is ideal for starting out

What is the TS like on porcelain? I've still got my first cutter (TR60) and it's a great cutter, but does struggle with some hard porcelains.

If you are a rubi man, get the new TX700, it is superb. I've given mine a good run out on all sorts of porcelain and it's handled them all with flying colours.

I have been working recently with a guy who was using a TS60 plus to cut some really hard porcelain. His secret of success? Use the cutter to score the tile.

Then break the tile across the top of his knee...............:47:

"You gotta hit the tile on your knee in just the right place mate......"

Um, ow.

Monti 63-p2 does it for me.

So that would be our Lithuanian tiler Roland ? A very good fixer but must have knees of steel.

good cutter but prefer sigmas for large porcelain

Bri

is that the tx 700 N? or the normal tx 700 ?

Just the TX700. I've got the TX 1200N and the measuring bar gets in the way as it's already a big cutter. If you mark your cuts then the bar on the N never gets used to it's full potential anyway, so is a bit of a waste.
