Thanks for the heads up on that grinder , is the bevel machine any good ?

I found the wet cutter quite good. Interesting to hear other people's thoughts on it. Might try the variable grinder and buffing pad next time.

very nice work fella, would love to see apoc after grouting?

Was a nightmare to do, least helped by the fact the window was a country mile off of the level. Remember putting my level on the actual window and my bead ended up sitting back in the van lol. Black grout contributed to the never ending nightmare.

Usual joiners that the customer has used (and they are dead good!) **** it! Tiler can catch it...

Ohhh the customer's spark had the shaver socket sitting tight against wall! If I tiled it the cover plate wouldn't have fitted! Magic, maybe the tiler can cut 10mm off of the chrome cover to make it fit.

I despise when the customer provides their 'own' tradesmen! Anyhow rant over.

I don't use a variable speed grinder (might do now with the price of that Bosch tho) I just hand work the Tile usually with a 200 grit pad or a wet stone then cut the back out with a turbo blade from right lines, very similar to as turbo I believe, just keeping a sponge on the blade as @3_fall does, works a treat for me

Don't waste you're money.
This is it after just 1Lm of thin tile.
It's the one below the sigma.

You can see how it's already worn.

When pad use, I take off the blade guard.

spoke to my tool suppliers today to see if than can beat that price. Did some ring about to Bosch UK and got told it's not something they sell in this country and must be an import.
