Never thought to swap the handle.
You just made my life a whole lot easier.
Thank you good sir
It's an absolute game changer, Glad to be of service!
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 👍
Awesome! Thanks for the kind words, and enjoy the cutter.. You will for sure!
@thebespokebloke the cutter was a dream to use. Should of bought one a long time ago. Cheers chap👍
@@simoncheshire-f3y Love that! Now that should also last you a very long time. Just remember to oil the bar and wheel occasionally 👌
Such a good video great work
I have used many professional tile cutters over the years of my tiling career and now I only use a Sigma. Superb piece of kit 😮
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!
@@thebespokebloke we certainly have my friend as you say there is no comparison better Rubi and Sigma for me. Breaking bar is far far stronger.
🤓👍
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.
I hate the Monty for that exact reason, measure bar is too far from the eyes and can’t see properly. Pushing away from the measuring bar is perfect for me, I have full control, can do precise out of square cuts without pencil marks and see every millimetre, but I guess we all different 🤣
Yeah everyone has their own techniques for sure!
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!
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
Can it cut the wood look like porcelain tiles? If is not a flat surface is my question..
Hey, Absolutely! I use plank tiles a lot, and they are very easy to cut. If I have time I'll get a video up on plank tiles this weekend actually
😂😂 No way... I'm doing that first thing in the morning.
See the light..😂
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
@@thebespokebloke well must thank you for your reply.... alas this customer ever changing his mind...has now today said.....600max....due to costs and deadlines....
It's one of those customers 😎🤔🫣
Trying to help them every which way......save labour, costs as always....
Advice for free my end.....big promises and ideas from them....then the penny drops...and they realise the time, costs involved .
Cracking on with my 600 now it seems 🤣🤣
They've not even purchased the tiles for the next bathroom FFS...and trims... Or doors....or kitchen or utility room 🫣🫣🫣🤣🤣🤣
Don't ask🤣🤣🤣
Appreciate your advice tho buddy 🙏🏼🤗
@@Lee.ELIXIR No worries mate, yep sounds like one of them jobs.. You'll probably be able to manage with the 600, with a bit of angle grinding here and there. The other option is if they rent one from a local tile shop, Could work out cheaper all round.
Where do I buy this machine?
Hey, They are getting a bit harder to find now.. Because of the series 4. But online or tile shops last stock is the best place. Worth it if you can find one for sure!
How is the 60x60 tiles?
Cuts 60x60 like a dream!
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.
@@user-rc8oj3zw2zNice, and don't forget you can attach a laser on the 4 as well!
