tile cutter

I ordered one for a friend along with a blue Bosch grinder. It cost about £15 more than the grinder IIRC. Having said that it did make a lovely job of some 15mm thick porcelain tiles that were almost impossible to touch with anything else. Worked well on some travertine marble as well.

I've read a few of the older posts in this newsgroup and they all recommend the plasplugs models because of this. I was looking at a Screwfix Titan model for economy but it seems that the Plasplugs is a similar price and being plastic will not rust unlike the Titan. Is the Plasplugs the only one to recycle its water; do all the others just spray everywhere?

Also, what jigsaw do you use for tile cutting? I tried to jigsaw a floor tile with a grit blade and it didn't want to know. It is a Bosch model I have, do I need a more powerful model?

Thanks.

I've no experience of others; my first one was a small Plasplugs when they were rare DIY machines replaced by the current bigger model when the first was lent out and kept by a pal (who gave me the new cost for it) Both were satisfactory and value for money - the larger one just better especially for big tiles.

I bought a tile cutting blade for mine and yes it was a waste of time. A hand saw was better - but never used one since getting the cutter.
