Can a tile cutter cut angles?

Can I cut tile with an oscillating tool?

You can use an oscillating tool instead to substitute all of them. Tile cutting requires tile nipper, tile cutter, tile file, and even a driller sometimes. Without a tile cutter, the best remedy is to use an oscillating tool other than tools like a saw.

How can I cut tile without tools?

For any type of tile (like ceramic, glass, or porcelain), an angle grinder is best for round cuts whereas a glass cutter can make smaller cuts. And if you have a lot of tile to trim, a wet saw is one of the easiest, quickest options.

Can you start tiling in a corner?

Should tile overlap in corners?

When you tile the other side of the corner, the tiles should overlap, but make sure you leave a clearance gap between them (place a spacer). Next, use caulk to fill the corner gap, as a regular grout isn’t flexible and would crack in a few months.
