Cheers.
Don't always work to the bubble but try as hard as I can to get it there or there abouts.
Sometimes your wall can be really bad & you've just got to go with it.

I would buy a 700ish Sigma & an angle grinder with an ATS blade.
I rarely use a wet cutter now, an angle grinder & a sponge at the back of it gives a really good cut.

Talk me through the using of a sponge with angle grinder.

So here it is a day and a half later lol first kitchen floor done !!!

You've done a nice job mate well done for your first floor, you have set it out nicely!

 

[Stocks Tiles]

Here is the unlevel door lining, even though it bugged the hell out of me looking at it and yes the tiles are level :hurray:

Get a wet sponge & hold it at the back of your grinder guard.
I'm right handed so hold grinder with right hand & put the wet sponge at the back of the guard against the blade with my left hand.
Once you get used to it you will very rarely use a wet saw.

I needed a wet cutter for tomorrow. I was gonna ask my buddy for a leand of his diy one but Im gonna this method like. What do you cut your tile on what surface? Is a soft springy surface better than a solid hard surface?

I hang the tile off of a hop up.
You are better with a softer surface, use some cardboard from the tile boxes.
Have a practice on an off cut of tile & watch your fingers, once you get a hang of this method then you won't use a wet cutter much.

Go onto ATS DiamondTools & order from Alan direct.
Get a continuous rim or a porcelain turbo blade. Don't be put off by the price these blades are some of the best you can buy.

I have just switched to ATS blades I'm using the turbo blade and it wont bloody die lol, it really has put the montolit pro gres to shame and it's 1/3 the price posted!

After reading all the good reports on here about ATS blades I think I'm going to invest when my current one dies.

I wouldn't even wait till your current one dies, I would invest in a blade or 2 now, round about £10 a blade.
Keep the one you have just now as a spare.
