Mitring glass tiles

[Ian]

Afternoon all, got a potential job coming up where the client doesn't want trim, has anyone successfully mitred glass tiles? The tile size is 150x75mm so not a big tile. My thoughts are it will be very difficult to get a mitre without chipping, especially on a cut edge. Thanks in advance.

I would be more concerned with shelling... not a good idea IMO..

Straight cut and reverse the edge inwards or polish cut edges..

No I didn't think it was the greatest idea I've ever had, just wondered if it was possible to do it and, more importantly, do it well.

I Simply cut and polish, then use good edge to interlock externals

I know it is personal preference but I would point all external edges same way.

Either way! As long as the cut edges are reversed!
That aside my photo is embarrassing looks messy must have been my apprentices work.

I must agree with Dave Andrew the job looks very nice, but it creates an optical illusion in the pics as if the tiles are steping. I'm sure it looks mint in the flesh.

I offer both options to clients, this did look good but would be happy with either method

Looks good Andrew.
