Cutter Or Saw?

[gooty]

Got use of a tile saw and am wondering if it's worth buying a cutter.
It's only a small job, so couldn't it all be done by saw (and better cuts too)?

Depends on the type of cutter you have, type of tile being cut, type of cuts required etc. Any more info?

9mm porcelain tiles laid brick pattern, so just straight cuts

Wet saw better cuts ,

Decent tile cutter for me in that case

Depends on the wet saw
How many m2 is it?

All about the blade

I'm imagining the porcelain is 60x30, in that case a manual cutter wood certainly be quicker

Manual cutter but you can bet there will be at least one cut needing a wet cutter!

RUBI .... Or dare I say Sigma.... With a trusty angle grinder and good blade.

Rubi tx 700 for me but just incase you need that millimetre or 2 shaving off after you,ve done your cut or you get a bad break then I would recommend having a wet cutter on hand with a good blade that doesn't chip........I've started using the tile mate pro blades from Topps just recently.......run through hard porcelain chip free, no problem!

I'd advise getting a wet cutter.......I can't work without one

Bought one of those blades for my Vitrex, impressed to say the least.
