Awesome video-super concise, and clear explanations. I haven't tiled for years, and I'm getting ready for a basement remodel with quite a bit of tile involved. Your videos are excellent, no BS explanations of tools, techniques, and best-practices. Thanks!

This is very comprehensive. Your videos are great! The only other things that I can think of that I use every time I tile is a scale and measuring cup. I never mix full bags of thinset, I always weigh out between 10 and 20 pounds at a time depending on the job size and timing (I'm not all that speedy in general, especially when setting around windows - I'm faster setting floors). I also use a ton of drop cloths and blue tape.

Wow! Thanks for the help. I have 2 Sigma cutters that I have had for 3 or 4 years. I have a small one that cuts up to 14 inches, and one that cuts up to 37 inches or so. I have used the small one for backsplashes and really like it, but I have never gotten any good use out of the big one because I couldn't get it to make good cuts and it just damaged the tile. I had sort of given up on it, but this video has helped me. I watched your technique and tried it and it works!!!! I made some practice cuts with some tiles I have and it actually cut nicely. Thank you! I may be able to actually use it now. Thank you so much.

In Australia it’s way more traditional to have the pull score on the cutters except for the 1200mm tile cutters
@benjamindelfs27189 ай бұрын
Not anymore. Most of the sigma models are becoming push models now. Most aussie tilers don’t use wet saws for bathrooms either like the Americans.

Hi just stumbled on your video, great insite for the newcomer, spoken by someone that actually has experience. You mentioned tile sponges and floats ,do you guys use the washboy bucket and sponge system in the states. Real time saver if not aware of them.

This is only about 10% of tools used where I live in Europe. In Italy and other countries tile laying is very productive and quick, cause there is tradition of 'known' pricing, and no contractor wants to be seen as overpricing. Often clients don't even ask for a pricing before job is done. That leaves only one way to make a good living and a profit, increase productivity by using extremely specific tools designed to give any marginal gain to speed and ergonomy possible. Those tools can be high tech like Sigma Batipav Rubbi, but more often low tech like a woodworking chisel or an ax.

Will a 10 amp wet saw get smooth cuts on 0.35 in thick porcelain tile? Or can I just use a snap cutter?
@ThatTileChick2 жыл бұрын
Most wet saws today will cut most porcelain up to 3/8" think with no issue, the snap cutter vs tile saw I think comes down to personal preference to be honest

A few things like tip nippers, long straight edges for common areas, string lines and other set out tools are important for DIY hackers. Overall you got most of the tools you’d use.
