Hi all, :)


As some of you know, I'm in my 7th week, of 16, on a Wall & Floor tiling course; lvl 2 Diploma.

Though this might not answer the question, I soon learned that the gap in between the 'planks' of the aluminium 'Step-Up', was perfect to slip a 150mm^2 tile in to create perfect slim 8mm, and less, wide pieces.

So, there's a tool that someone can invent; a Ste-up/Trestle with an adjustable plank. Or, does it exist already? :)

...Ray.

Recently I was in on a Rubi "Breakfast Morning" where the rep had the same problem cutting a particular Matt finished rivened tile..That tile had an extra middle sandwich material...
I have often just scored that type of tile and "whacked it on the straight of a corner of something.. Giving it an even pressured break.... Invariably works for me...
