You can only use your wet cut machine for this as its natural stone, and adhesive i would use is single part flexible for walls and make sure its white and not grey.

You wont cut natural stone very well with a snap cutter. Has to be cut with a diamond (wet?) cutter. I think some people prefer to cut it through the cutter dry.

You didn't give any details about the type of Trav. and sizes etc.
