wet cutter is just no good, much more accurate by hand and quicker
only time a wet cutter helps is to put a good edge on a cut if that's got to be mitred

Agreed mate, not for the lack of trying tho Julian.
Got a fine grit profiling wheel for that profiling tool coming soon, turns out it came supplied with the medium grit,and was too aggressive.
Determined to make it work! Haha

My sigma works great for miters but my dewalt not so much

Haha good for you mate.
No nothing like that, just a regular cutting disc for the removal of most of the tile.
Then the final bit is polished back.

Cheers Lee.
I'm still searching for the balance tho of speed and skill when it comes to that level of work.

Can't say I've tried one of the larger sigma wet cutters kyle, just can't see me balancing a piece of 2m tile tho trying to mitre it! Haha

It can't realistically be done, as much as I love Sigma that's a stretch!

Great work marc.
Ive done loads in 600s, i think it looks much better than normal kitchen tiling

Cheers Craig, yeah I think it's definitely the look that will eventually become the norm in certain properties, a lot of developers seem to be taking it up.

The tiling looks great! Not too keen on the join in the worktop though

It's a terrible job!
Polished concrete made off site and brought in, seemed to b some kind of dispute somewhere, didn't push it, client was getting visibly wound up! Haha

Really neat job Marc!

Could be a nightmare though, imagine hitting 3 or 4 sockets off of the 1 tile?!

 

[Old Mod]

Really neat job

thanks!
