RUBI TX 700!would that be a good buy ?

[fipple]

I have a sigma 3a...so im covered for 510mm tiles,....im on the brink:smilewinkgrin: of buying another cutter...obviously needs to cover larger formats so anything 700mm to 750mm...ive noticed montilit do a 750 but rubi tx goes to 700/900..would the 50mm diff between tx and montolit matter? anyone have any suggestions as to which cutter would be best for porcelain large format..cheersin advance!

Why not just go for the bigger Sigma..

would the 50mm diff between tx and montolit matter?

Yes if you need to cut 750mm tiles.......:lol:

At the end of the day it's down to what size tiles you think you'll need to cut - no good getting a 900 if you only ever fix 300x300 floors I use a TX700N and without doubt it is the best all round cutter on the market You could end up lumping a 900 or 1200 around and use it once every 12months:yikes:

I think Doug has a photo of the difference in size between a 700 and a 1200.......

So the question is really:

What size Rubi TX-N do I buy?

i meant!was is the most typical sizes tile around the 700mm mark!...are 750mm more common!?...if they r then i,ll buy a monty or a sigma

 

[fipple]

Also! and i know this will b hottly debated,but!....IN ALL honesty,ive seen many rubi cutters and they dont seem as well made as the sigmas!..Just somethings ive personally noticed!..Also,i did find it hard at first to use my 3a sigma..but now i know my way round it...its a beaut!

 

[merlecollins]

Then buy another Sigma Fipple....

It's a personal taste thing:smilewinkgrin: they all do the same job mate in slightly different ways The Rubi/Sigma debate is an old and exhausted one:mad2:

Calm down dear, its just a commershecal, I can spell commercial but Ellie cant say it so I prefer her way to pronounce it.
