Hi Fipple..

What you selling the Sigma for... you just bought it haven't you mate..?

 

[fipple]

err yes!...and no im not after a rubi ty..:lol:,,,im in love with a tomecanic...thats the only reason im selling it...2 b honest, if i dont sell it then fine...im cool either way...just couldnt really justify paying another £200 for another cutter...the other half would skin me:incazzato:!!...i will say this though!...was using a rubi star of all things today...served me really well on some ceramics...

 

[DHTiling]

So you think the tomecanic super coup will serve you better...

I looked at one of these a while back now... Utube i think i saw it..

 

[fipple]

In all honesty,i personally think it will suit me better.Im sure there are many many happy users of sigma's...but i broke my wrist where the sockets join the wrist(popped 2 cartlidges..they need fusing with pins, but that would restrict its use.Been that way for 25yrs...im as strong as an ox really,ive learnt to work around it..can still lift 25kg bags of plaster,but for me the sigma started annoying my wrist..i know they do a klick klock handle but looks long winded,,,Tomecanic on the other hand(pardon the pun!)...looks for me an easier scribe and then gentle click...Im a bit of a tool snob like most,and i just love the look and functionality of the tomy...

 

[DHTiling]

Ahh i see... that would aggravate the injury then..

The Rubi TX works similar to the Tomecanic, where as you score and then flip the breaker over..

Not sure if you have seen the video for one but it would be wise to compare and see what you think.. i have one and it never lets me down..

Yep,seen 1 in the flesh at bedfords **********...does look well made...and they do seem similar in the moving breaker...1 negative,the tomecanic case is a god awful looking!..but cases dont really bother me...they use to!...cheers for the heads-up on the tx...may give it some consideration...as we know parts and spares are so easily available..

 

[merlecollins]

Surprised you've had no takers of this cutter yet....

 

[fipple]

Im not going to sell now...i had 1 private message but ive thought better of it,gonna stick with it and save up for the tx or tomecanic

Ok Fipple. Thanks for the update. I'll close the thread now, but if you ever change your mind you can always re-advertise it at a later date.
