Onoff Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 Phew!... They haven't cut too bad I guess: Those 3 in a pack, flat, diamond files @Nickfromwales put me on to are great. Leaves with that bit of "waste" in the middle from which I'd like to get another thin one but I need to remove the pseudo grout line... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onoff Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 Six cut out of 3 tiles. All the cut edges dressed under a running tap so they're pretty damn good considering cheap ceramic! I need 22 (maybe 20) like this to "border" the wet room corner. IF I can accurately wet saw the 3 offcuts I'll be up to 9 but that's a big if! At least one edge on each of these 3 I can score/snap/dress like these 6 I reckon. And there's the self doubt kicking in again or maybe lack of ale! Pint No.2 is in order methinks.

Onoff Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 Scored, snapped and dressed the rhs of the 3 off cuts. Hmmm...from left not so good, fair then better. Need to wet cut the pseudo grout lines off: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onoff Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 From 7 full tiles I've cut 21 for the vertical mosaic strips that define the wet room corner.14 tiles with 1 factory edge + 1 cut edge and 7 tiles with both edges cut. One of the tiles with both edges scored, cut & diamond filed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
