Discuss Need help with cuts in the America Tile Forum / Advice Board area at TilersForums.com.

Hi guys, I have started a job of 45m² with 600 x 600 porcelain. I'm having trouble when I'm cutting the tile. I'm left with a tail at the end of the cut and at this rate I won't have any tiles left. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is my wheel height set wrong ? Is it just bad technique? Need help bad ! I'm using a sigma 3c3m BT

It hasn't seen much use to be fair, im DIY so it's only had one other job. I think I might have solved it. I was scoring a lead at the front and back of the tile which I think was giving me the problem. Does that make sense?
Did you fix this problem as I am having this issue with the same cutter. Leaves a tail on the end every cut.
