Setting the Tiles - Part 2
Place the tile to be cut directly over the last set tile. Set another tile, the "marker tile," on top of it, butting it against a tile set on edge at the wall. Trace along the marker tile to mark the cutting line on the tile below.
The first part of cutting a tile is scoring it. Place the tile you marked in Step 6 on the cutter and align the cutting line with the scoring tool. Pull or push the cutter along the top of the tile with a single, firm stroke.
The second part of cutting is to snap the tile in two. Wearing safety goggles, press down on the handle of the cutter to snap the tile in two.
Spread adhesive for the cut tiles and lay them the same way you laid the other tiles.
