RUBI TM-50, how does it differ from TS-50? Here we go again

Hello,
What's the difference, seems the RUBI TM-50 has a 1000kg breaking and is depth adjustable from 6 mm - 21 mm, is that it?

Would you advise against one?

Never heard of a TM machine, a TS Plus is ideal for the majority of jobs

one question. how do i know when my wheel is getting blunt. what are the tell tale signs?
will it start to stutter and not do a clean cut as i think mine might be ready to go.
if so where is the best place to get replacement wheels?

You can just tell Panlid, a nice new wheel will make a high pitch scratch when scoring, a blunt wheel just doesn't score well. difficult to explain

i think i now what you mean. last week it started to sound errrr 'dull' and 'rolly' rather than 'scoring'
im learning

If you need replacement cutters for them quickly.........topps tiles keep limited stocks
