cut
In graph theory, a cut is a partition of the vertices of a graph into two disjoint subsets. Any cut determines a cut-set, the set of edges that have one endpoint in each subset of the partition. These edges are said to cross the cut. In a connected graph, each cut-set determines a unique cut, and in some cases cuts are identified with their cut-sets rather than with their vertex partitions.
In a flow network, an s–t cut is a cut that requires the source and the sink to be in different subsets, and its cut-set only consists of edges going from the source's side to the sink's side. The capacity of an s–t cut is defined as the sum of the capacity of each edge in the cut-set.

As the replies I got to my previous setting out post were so helpful so I thought I'd ask for your setting out advice again if I may. This time it's the floor, and especially around the wetroom tray former.
The tiles are 330mm and the tray former is 1350x1050 with the drain at an awkward non...

Hi all,
I've tried cutting my first porcelain floor tile with the sigma cutter - it failed miserably. I've got a bucket full of curved cuts from a single 600x600 porcelanosa VENIS tile. Maybe 2 cuts oout of the 10 I tried worked.
Before I go and hire a bridge saw for the weekend, have any of...

I'm not a tiler. Hope that's OK! We had a new kitchen, and the builder laid the porcelain tiles. After he'd finished (and we'd paid him), we saw the line by the living room door wasn't straight. He apologised, and offered to cut it straight with an angle grinder, but he can't get to the edges...

Had a tiler come round to give a quote for tiling my bathroom.
I have 60x60 porcelain to go on the floor and wanted them envelope cut into the wetroom tray.
The guy was very against the whole thing and said I should only really be using mosaic.
I've spent quite a few weeks reading these...
