[QUOTE="Filip, post: 897900, member: 50095"] I have just been struggling with tiles chipping on a DIY kitchen floor project with 600 x 300 porcelain tiles. Over the past week we have been referring to my table wet saw as "Mr Chippy" I use a Belotta wheel cutter for the 300 cuts and that gives perfect snap cut but its only 500 long so for the 600 and L cuts I have to use Mr Chippy. I have found that I get on better without the fence. I have tried a new disk - yes its sharper but it didn't help my chips, I have tried pre scoring on some L shapes and cutting to the side of the line but that didn't help. I have tried turning the tile upside down - no help. Reading [USER=49965]@TilingPeter[/USER] thread I see that a diamond rubbing/ polishing block has been mentioned, is this a hand thing or one that fits an angle grinder. I have tried and angle grinder with a diamond blade although I did it dry it was no better. People recommend an angle grinder and wet sponge but how is that better than a wet bench cutter. My new bench blade was a Norton and under £10 but I am reluctant to spend lots only to find that as had been said by pros on here that "some tiles do just chip whatever you do". Sorry that was long [/QUOTE]
