Re-tiling bathroom. Need some advice please

[davestephens0]

Hi,

Now that Christmas is over, my wife has tasked me with the job of retiling our main bathroom (how kind). I have a question about cutters.

I will be tiling the floor and the walls. As can be expected, she has picked out these "designer" wall tiles

Would a standard cutter be sufficient for both these types of tiles. I am looking at this Portable-Wet-Saw, it is at the lower end of the cutters available, but would it be upto the job? I don't mind spending a bit more if it will give a better end result.

Are there any other tools I will need to prevent me turning these very expensive tiles into sawdust or putting them on back to front?

If you need any more info, please ask

Cheers
Dave

was thinking the same as well, altho' I couldn't open the link, if I'd not done any tiling before I'd not want to start with expensive porc! What area are you from dave, I'm sure one of the forum regulars would be willing to have a look at your job and advise further.

Thanks for all the good advice. Those links seem to have been replaced with links back to the forums. Here they are again (apologies if posting external links is against forum policy)
