Thanks will search for ctd

the Raimondi is a serious purchase ! £2k+ but what a beast she looks !

 

[Swin]

Got a better price than that,but those prices above look a lot better
£700 I assume plus vat looks good,just applied for a cash account so I can see prices,now need too wait ....

I used both the rubi 1200,and raimondi on a job couple of weeks ago,raimondi won hands down,easier to set up and more rugged in use,plunge cuts a doddle too,comes down to money as well though

Yes, plus VAT but don't forget the free toolbox and t-shirt .

 

[Swin]

Yes t shirt might just swing it

Consider looking at the Flex CS60 rail saw as an alternative if you do a lot of stone.

Keep a normal bridge saw for the bulk of your work and the Flex will cut anything bigger.

We do a blade that will fit it that will cut porcelain but it's mostly used in Stone masonry.

Good bit of kit and very useful for thick or large format product.

We used to use one for cutting up 3200mm x 2100mm x 30mm granite slab.

Got some more 1 m tile jobs coming up this year,2 limestone 20 mm ones
just need to get prepared as it's becoming a struggle with tools I have

Good luck needed if you're buying Rubi power tools these days.
The Lada of tiling tools now in my opinion.

Pete, if you ever need to borrow my tx1200 for dry cuts just give me a bell mate

 

[Swin]

Cheers Doug but it's a wet cutter I need

The flex cs60 looks great,this might be worth looking at,takes up a lot less space too...
