Sigma Vs Rubi finally solved!!!!!!!!

[DHTiling]

It is yes, strange at first as it isn't a straight scribe and snap.. would be good to try the pull handle to compare.

Im going to send you all the handles Dave to play around with. You can then get a feel for what works best for you.

don't know why, but don't use hand cutter much :ninja:. but sigma looks :drool5:. will have to get one

Also gents one to remember. when you change a handle over on a Sigma you must only release the nut on the bar at the base end not where the guide rail is. I had a guy who released both ends and just spun around the whole bar which might knock it out of line. They come calabrated from Italy so just be aware. slide the handle off the bar from the back end then either turn it around or switch the handle over. If your cutter ever goes out of line in the future then its a simple thing to get it right again. (small alen key and spanner) on the guide rail where you see the silver knob where the measurments are. it adlusts from there to get it right again. two min job.

really..?.. wow another late birthday prezzy .. i do want to use the pull one though as that seems the quickest one to use..

I had a look today at how easy the handle is too change... i thought it might be a chew but nah.. just undo the height adjuster and lift up off the rail , slide the handle off and bingo changed.

 

[Dougs Third Go]

which one did you get Dave?, I've been thinking 3CM to replace my tx700, although I'd probs go for kk handle

 

[DHTiling]

It's the 3ck Doug... yes klick klock... Doug try one , i think you will like...

It was just to see if it could do it Pete, sometimes i am governed on these wetrooms to where the tile finishes at ceiling height as i have to start of the viynal trim with a full tile, so it works what it works to the ceiling.. but my TS will not cut small slivers from a full tile without breaking away but the Sigma does no probs..

I would like to use the pull handle though to see how the smaller foot works etc.

Was hoping I wouldn't ever need to use a manual tile cutter again lol

Sorry am i missing something but to replace the handle I have to remove the roll pin too ?

Not that I have a Klick Klock handle to try

 

[White Room]

I'm sure thats what I did changing from a pull handle for a KK....

 

[Sigma UK]

Yes. knock the pin out at the back so the handle slides off. We have a new system out soon where its just a quick release fitting. No more hitting the pin out with hammer.

Ahh I thought I was right.
