Manual Tile Cutter (19INCH)

Been using this break for a few months now. I love it... with a few exceptions. 1. There is no viewfinder. Being able to line up a break that is not a square cut becomes challenging at first. You need to learn to make two marks at either end of the tile and line them up with the break rod and arrow at the top. 2. Breaks over 16 inches are a challenge. One end or another usually tails just a tiny bit causing the corner to need a bit of a grind to get perfectly straight. 3. This break doesnt come with a carrying case. This is honestly the biggest disappointment. If i spend this much money on a break i expect a protective case to carry it around in. 4. The speed measure guide at the top only goes to 5-6 inches on left and 7-8 inches on the right. The higher end rubi breaks have a speed measure guide that extends at least a foot.Aside from those minor flaws its actually a really great break. Expect the paint to chip with your first break. Its poor quality paint. Breaks are clean, even on the harder/more vitreous tiles. Once you get used to the setup it becomes pretty fast.

Really nice tool to have to cut tile with.

Nice cutter.

Once you get the mechanics right, it cuts tiles great.
