DIY Chip free wet saw - TilersForums.com

Some tiles are almost impossible to cut without the glaze chipping.

I have come to that same conclusion myself

I have tried an angle grinder blade (a good Rubi one). If you don't mind the dust, don't mind the noise, and can move it in a perfectly straight line then it's almost as good as my wet tile cutter. The finish was pretty poor most of the time (tried it a few different ways) and if you make a small mistake then it can make a pretty big cut into the tile. However, with a lot of care it could be used to gently grind the edge with a bit less chipping than my wet saw, but on the whole, it's not really much use.

I'm doing my tiles differently. My awkward cuts were caused mostly by my shaver socket but I've realised that it's not much work to move it by a few mm. All of the visible edges will now either have the factory finish or be done by a scribe and snap cutter. The whole job should be a lot easier now

Hold a wet sponge in your left hand whilst using a grinder and hold it against back of blade, cuts will improve substantially.
Wet not damp.
Put your shaversocket in bathroom cabinet.

I too have just been struggling with a DIY kitchen floor project and also 600 x 300 porcelain tiles so I feel your pain. I am starting my own thread as I do not want to hijack yours.
But what I would say about the last part coming off is that I go so slow from about an inch back that you can hardly see the tile moving and that stops the last edge snapping off the corner
