Which Tile Hole Cutter?

[HardTarget]

I'm about to start my bathroom walls and will have to cut the usual holes for rad pipes, shower, and waste and maybe for some fixings. What do you guys recommend is there a kit with all the cutters I need? I know they are not cheap, but I dont want to spend a fortune on them. but at the same time I want to them to do the job without grief 🙂

What are the tiles ceramic, porcelain or natural stone?

Ceramic tiles John, but I might have to drill through a couple of porcelain floor tiles as well.

ATS Diamond Tools is where I buy all mine from

Just remember to drill slowly and keep the bit wet all the time

John do they just screw onto my angle grinder or would I need an adaptor to fit a drill?

eBay is a good place to look. I get mine from there, but try and get the ones with a hollow shank then that way when you look from above you can centre the bit perfectly with the mark on your tile.
You would also need a drill guide to stop it slipping around. hth.

Straight into a cordless drill no adapter required
