Your series of tiling videos are the most relevant and informative I've seen to date. From Sigma push cutter, swapping the handle around, the short backward and then push motion, the 1cm off the corner adjustment marking out tray tiles.. it has made it so much easier to plan my tiling. Thankyou for that! Unless I've missed some vids, I'd love to see some on tile and room design - floor tile layout, how they should line up with wall tiles, vertical vs horizontal wall tiles and how they should match floor tile lines, beyond just making to room seem longer/wider etc. Many thanks for your series!
Thanks mate, and thanks for the kind words. I have covered it a little bit in some video's, I'll link them below. But I can make a more broader one on setting out, But it's quite subjective depending on the situation. But I'll get some notes down and see if i can come up with a video for basic things that would apply in most situations. th-cam.com/video/dLTqbtmhirw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Jp1e5biOUr9uU76P th-cam.com/video/cSSv-DLt8dw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=f8-OKMNS9eYe0Ntb th-cam.com/video/laFEgXM744U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Fmu9_aJqywrbz_rn
@@thebespokebloke That would be great cheers! For me, lining up tiles relative to boundaries is well understood. When I tile, say, an ensuite with rectangular tray and 60x30 tiles, I can end up with partial width tiles both side so that the drain falls on the corners of the middle tiles nicely. But then I get stuck figuring out if the walls will look good depending on orientation and where the lines between tiles will match with the floor, or even if they need to etc. Each job is different so it's only after I'm done will I know if the choice was a good one. Just wondering if there are general do's/don't which apply here. Thanks again.
@@craigryan6533 Setting out is tricky to tell someone how I'd do it as it is subjective. But a couple of things I'd always be looking at with floors is.. Can I get a full tile from the door?, can I get a full tile from the bath/shower tray? Then I'd look around and see what visually takes priority. if it's a room with not much stuff in it, Then just cantering it may be best? If i have plank type tiles, if i lay them across ways the room will look wider, and narrow laid length ways. These are all the kind of things that go through my head on set out. But i think I've mentioned it before, If you can justify your set out then you're probably in a good place. Maybe 2 things work bad, but 5 things work good.. You've got a make a decision on the most beneficial if that kind of makes sense.
Nice, Yeah I mean I used to swear by Rubi cutters, and then you use something like the Sigma, which ticks all the boxes.. and that's it.. Sounds like we've both had similar cutter journeys!
I'm a DIY guy and some of my tiling buddies use Sigma cutters. I tried it myself and when I do some small tiling projects - I will always try and use a Sigma. They are amazing.
Evening, only recently found your channel and love your work. Clean, crisp, and precise. Just bought a sigma series 4 as your video persuded me (was a toss up between that and montolit). Get to pop its cherry tomorrow on my current project. Keep up the great work 👍
@@thebespokebloke thanks mate. Upon more research. For series 4 NEX is the Push model. UP is the pull Their model sizes are frustrating. If I have a 600mm tile, I can’t do diagonal cuts with the 840mm model ART4CU. It’s short by 1cm and need to move up to the 950mm model ART4DN
@@Tigerratcat Yes mate, 900 is a good size for diagonals on 600's, TBH I use my 900 most of the time as it's also nice to have the space when working with a 600 . Yep the 4DN is the better mechanism for sure! Basically the same as the MAX on the 3 series
Got a 120cm sigma I do flip from my Rubi tx900 and the Rubi the transition sometimes is difficult I’m defo flipping the handle around thanks for showing how easy it is to that
Hi when not doing square cuts can you see your pencil.line clearly at both ends when using the sigma as well as you can on the rubi?? And can you see clearly enough to get the cutting wheel lined up at both ends...tia
Hey, Because of the bar you have to either have a look from the side, Or line it up with a part of the cutter. I line mine up with the right hand side of the centre bar. At first it's a bit weird compared to a Rubi, But you soon get used to it. The 4 series which is more available than the 3, can also have a laser line attachment.
Hey mate, Pretty good compared to other cutters. Obvs always depends on the tile. But I can't remember a tile that hasn't cut. You can see me cutting a textured tile in this video if it helps..th-cam.com/video/xJNtodGGge0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XwhLWAOrBq5thr_c
Hey there, It depends on what size tiles you think you'll be using present and future. The 62cm in that video is a good all rounder, for large and small tiles. If you were just using small ceramic tiles, Then you could go for a cheaper cutter like the Rubi 40cm. But for porcelain and a wider range of tiles you can't go wrong with the 62cm. Hope that helps!
Sigma is the only cutter I will use for 15+ years. Anything else doesn’t compare. Never seen someone turn the handle around haha. Always used a pull personally unlesss using the 48” or larger size cutters. Series 4 with the laser is AMAZING! Highly recommend! Also you can use the guide that you can put on the bar to use for multiple size cuts.
@@thebespokebloke and do you know what part number because they are different .8 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm. thank you very much. I'm asking because it's for my first sigma
@@GrzegorzH-or9hh I believe it's 10mm, But check this link here it tells you which cutters www.tradetiler.com/tile-cutting-and-drilling/tile-cutter-accessories-spare-parts/shopby/manufacturer-sigma.html?srsltid=AfmBOoqkHzU8i0J8LaX-fRbtQm9wTUr_jcLeXGyN8OKrhaej6nr9izwH
Hi there, thanks for the useful info! I can't find the 3B4M model in the US. What similar model would you recommend? For medium size tile cutting. Series 4?
Hey thanks, Yeah the 3 series is getting harder to get now, as the 4 series is phasing it out. But yeah I'd go for the 4 series, Maybe a 95cm to cover you for all situations?, If you think you may use larger than 60x60 tiles at some point. It's much the same as the 3 series, The models are Sigma Series 4 NEX 4DN. Hope that helps!
They look so good. I have a 12 year old professional Rubi but it doesn’t cut anywhere near as good as that and no way I could cut thin strips like that. I always resort to angle grinder or wet cutting.
Great video. I cannot find the 3B4M anywhere. do you know where I can purchase one? I am in the US. I can find all the pull models but I want a push like you show in the video.
Thanks mate, You can change the handle if you can't find the push version. The 3's are probably slowly getting phased out by the 4's. This is a UK website I use, which delivers international and usually sale everything you need www.protilertools.co.uk/categories/tile-cutters/manual-tile-cutters/sigma-tile-cutters/sigma-series-3-tile-cutters Hope that helps
Super informative and an honest review. May have to check out the Sigma as I’m thinking of becoming a tiler. What model would you recommend for a beginner?
Thanks, Glad it was helpful! I'd say the 3B4M - 62cm which is in the video is a perfect all rounder. Perfect for small and medium size tiles, and not to big to carry around. You should be able to get the 3 series at a good price, as stocks are slowly being replaced with the 4 series. And I believe the 3 series is the still the best!
Sigma makes their cutters to push away from the fence, because the numbers are closer to you and easier to see. When you turn the handle around ,it makes the numbers backwards. Its all preference ,but I grew up using superior before switching to a sigma so it seemed more natural to me the way they are manufactured.
Absolutely personal preference my friend.. Although I don't know who would ever use the measure gauge. I'm racking my brain and don't think I've used it once in years.
@@thebespokeblokeinteresting. I’ve used the sigma klick klock 60cm for almost twenty years, so the push away from the ruler feels natural. Excellent machine. I use the ruler measurements constantly, I frequently don’t need to mark my cut pieces at all, just measure and cut accordingly.
sounds like me. i also grew up using the superior cutters, had 3 different sizes back in the early 80s, great machines for sure. i then switched to sigma and am totally use to the bar at bottom. yes i do alot of mark to mark cutting, but also use the bar measurements alot, so having it close and right side up is the way it should be imo. just bought the series 4- 48 inch sigma and its a dream, its the first push handle sigma i got, as all my others are pull. honestly, if i could have gotten a 48 pull, i would have, but they are hard to get here. one thing i found weird when i got my first sigma was that i didnt have to change the thing-a-ma-bob in the handle. for years i had spares for my superiors, that flat rectangular disc with the metal spring thingy use to wear out and had to be changed to tighten the slop in the handle... good ole days for sure.....thinking on getting the light up laser kit for my new 48 inch sigma, but no reviews anywhere on it.
@@frankcatrini4816 Nice, Yeah on my 90 I haven't changed the wheel in ever, and that's quite a few years, ha! They are a well made piece of kit. I'm not to sure on the size of the breaker handle on the 4, I'm sure it's fine but have seen some negative reviews on it. I would say the laser was a bit of a gimmick, but it may actually help with that one. Could be worth a go for the 40 dollars or whatever it is.
Ill be changing my handle on my 600 tomorrow 👍🏼👍🏼 Got a job coming up...my first porcelain 120x60cm tiles bathroom walls and floors. Is it worth buying the Sigma 120cm....my customer actually said they'd buy it 😬🤔
It'll be so much easier to use! Regards a 120 cutter..Then if the customer is going to buy it then absolutely! If you had a 900 you'd probably be able to survive without it though...in most of my Bathrooms with 120's I don't end up with many full 120 length cuts (and you can mulipulate the set out in your favour) The 90 cutter can cut up to 96cm's, So it gives you that flexibility, and the cutter can take the 120 tile without it being swamped. If a 60 is the biggest you've got, It may be a bit over powering for it just cutting length ways. (Although it would cut fine, it'll just be a bit of a pain with the overwhelming tile size) So long story short, ha.. If 60cm is your biggest cutter, and you think you'll have a lot of lengthways full tiles in your bathroom.. Get the 120 cutter. Hope that makes sense mate

I like the sigma but they are not for me. Any tile cutter where you cant see the cutting wheel are only good for straight cuts anything else is just a guess from a point to point mark.
It's pretty easy once you know how to use it, But I know what you mean it's a bit different to say a Rubi design. But once you know where to put the tile, You don't even think about it and will never miss your mark. It's an easy trade-off for me for the ability of cutting over other cutters.
@@thebespokebloke Actually I've just been looking again, after watching your youtube clip, and it seems like the sigma 4 you can see the wheel. I'm going to check one out when I can. They do break much superior to rubi cutters and the action of score and break is awesome. For me it was just not being able to see the wheel that i hated.
It's more natural if your used to traditional tile cutters. Professionals generally use Rubi cutters throughout time, Which are a push towards the measuring bar setup.
