I shall buy whatever you recommend at the weekend Lee!!

So here are a few pics of the two side by side and a short video of how the cut an 8mm porc tile.
Both the standard blades are ok for hidden cuts with the Briccolina being better. The two machines imo are better suited to different situations. The small compact size of the Briccloina is better if space is tight or for smaller tiles like metros etc. The Vitrex however is obviously a far bigger machine and it also has a much stronger motor which make it better for larger formats like 300x600’s etc and is small enough to fit beside you whilst tiling a standard bathroom upstairs where space is scarce. I’m glad I have both machines. For anything from kitchen splash backs, small format tiles or where space is a premium I’d take out the Briccolina, but if there’s a bit more room or slightly larger formats then the Vitrex would be better. Both could do with a blade upgrade rather than the standard ones supplied imo. For a cheap wet saw were you don’t need the power,precision or grunt of a Sigma 10M etc then you can’t go wrong with either.

Appreciate the feedback. I think the vitrex will suit me best as I’m after a like for like replacement. But may also go for the little bric in time as I can see the appeal of having them both.

In future Jerry something like this you could just stick in how was your day. Not technically correct obviously, but I’m sure it’d do mate.

Oh by the way, I wasn’t ranting earlier, I was a little distracted at the time, so if it felt that way I apologise. (Someone asked if I was ranting 😀)

Anyway back on topic eh. 🙂

And I’ve moved post too haha
