I wouldn't use this to rip 4", you'll have a 50/50 chance of it coming out right, but that goes for any tile breaker. It's a very nice piece though.

We installed 500mm(~19 3/4 inch) tile, and as long as scoring pressure was constant, the cuts were very clean. Diagonal cuts will likely depend on the angle. The only cuts I found troublesome were ones where I was trying to trim less than an inch.

I agree with Jason. You will break them unevenly. It is a good product but better for wider tiles.I tried using it for 6 x 24 tiles, and broke 30-40%, then used the wet saw to cut them and worked better.With square tiles it worked lot better.

I cut a 72x72 down to 72x48. Easy to cut but the result is an uneven grout line below the first row of tile. A friend did the same cut down but had a more talented tile guy. The consistency of thinset on the floor isimportant to insure proper water flow. Short answer, yes.

i havent tried. if u can get it to score from corner to corner u should b able to snap it over ur knee. otherwise its wet saw time. I have used a glass cutter and a level for larger tile. good luck. my cutter still works great.

Yes this cutter can cut a 12"x24" into two 12"x12" tiles. If you are cutting hard porcelain an electric wet saw would be required.

I did a large concrete floor with no problem. Took a day or two to stick well. I would have a two sided tape on hand for tiles you have to cut.Good luck

Sorry Mike. I have a larger cutter that will cut the dementions you ask for. And it will cut it fine. you wont go wrong. After buying the first cutter and saving time and money I would have been wrong not to up grade to the cutters I have.

It should be fine. Take your time cutting though, let the blade do the work. I used it to cut 2x3 glass tiles, it did wonderful. Bear in mind, the smaller the tile the harder to hold in place while cutting.

Yes, it is 4'X250'. We liked that it can be cut to whatever size we needed it.

I bought this tile cutter mainly because we were installing a 24inch tile in diagonal and it worked great, 18inch should be a breeze

Yes, I used a powered pruning saw to cut mine to size, although I had a box of the four-slat tiles to use around the edge. I felt that made a nicer border. Worked great; very easy to cut between the segments.

The larger the tile the harder to cut with a tile cutter. But 18 inches is not a problem to cut with a tile cutter. There are many video on ytube that show you how to do it. My tiles were the largest you can ever get and every time I tried to use the largest tile cutter, the tile kept breaking on me.

It comes with a Dianond blade for cutting ceramic tile. I use the drop in method and try torning the tile over and cut on the back side. But Im thinking of no chip out on the front. Try the front too. See how that turns out. It is out in my tool house tonight. Ill look at it tomorrow and see what's printed anywhere I can see it. The rpm you want. I love it. Sure made short work of Hardi siding.

As long as they are not diagnonal cuts. That being said, this saw works best on tiles in the 12" to 13" range.

Don't think you can do plunge cuts with it. I just cut large tiles with straight cuts.

The saw will cut a 4x4 but is just short of cutting a 2x6 in one pass unless you are willing to roll the board up at the end of the cut. Rolling the board is a practice common among carpenters but it is not accurate and IS NOT SAFE.

I didn't have a need to measure small pieces. All of the small cuts were waste as I needed the large piece. Not wanting to waste alot of tile I was making very thin cuts when I was practicing. 1.5" should be no problem, of course I don't know what type of tile you intend to cut.

Has anyone ever cut slate tiles with this tool? I'm trying to finish a shower wall, and need to rip 2"x2" slate mosaic tiles that are about a half inch thick. I understand I should get a diamond blade.
