Hello all,
Its my first attempt at a 3-way mitre trim like here:
I have followed a how-to guide on here and on youtube but i just cant get it right!!! Can someone help or shed any light why i am so stupid??? (haha!)
I received one of these last week, as I have a job this week that needs a lot of mitring as the clients do not want any trim. Just so I'm not ruining any expensive tiles, I thought I'd have a little practice before unleashing it on a paid job! I tried it on a polished porcelain, a low grade...
Hi, I am trying to mitre cut my mosaic tiles with my angle grinder using silverline stone grinding disc, but as you can see it is chipping on the edge. I tried it on my wet saw, but due to size of tile, it doesnt "sit" on the table and result is same.
Should I buy some better disc or any other...

Have two 3 way mitres to do into my kitchen window/sill 3 courses high into the returns,i am using 9mm square metal trim,am i right in thinking the way to do it is to cut the two horizontal pieces for the external corner as a normal mitre and the vertical piece with square cut end just buts up?.

I've had an enquiry asking me to make something like these for porcelain tiles:-
They cut a mitre into the edge of a tile in one process.
Here is a video of how they work:-
Questions:-
Would this be of interest to many?
What size would be most useful? I was thinking 12mm would cover most...

Hi GaryC,
I like the mitred edge...I think it looks stylish and is more practical than trim. I'm actually working on an invention which will make cutting mitred edges a whole lot simpler. It's called the Mitre Wiz and it attaches to any grinder. You simply run it along the edge of a tile and it...
Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone mitre cuts tiles around external corners or does everone use tile trim? Im tiling light & med travertine and I have a reasonable tile cutter but not sure what to do, advice would be appreciated.
Can it be done? Have been following the instructions in the 3-way mitre thread but can't seem to get it right, which leaves me wondering if it doesn't work properly unless the trim is a full quadrant..? It couldn't be my lack of skill, of course.....!! :-)
Thanks in advance for your input...
