I use the saw to primarily cut glass. I have made crosscuts up to 24" ....as far as the width, I have cut 48" pieces of glass with no problem. I have used it to cut 12x12 and up to 18x18 tiles....hope this helps.

Cantilevering Rail/Cart system allows for 24" ripping capacity - 18" tile on diagonal

I used this saw on 12"x24" porcelain tile. I actually took the guides off and fed it through by hand. I marked the top of the tile with pencil and was able to cut any length needed. Hope this helps.

I didn't have a need to measure small pieces. All of the small cuts were waste as I needed the large piece. Not wanting to waste alot of tile I was making very thin cuts when I was practicing. 1.5" should be no problem, of course I don't know what type of tile you intend to cut.

Minimum width...well, I've trimmed some pretty narrow strips off of 4" ceramic tile. I've trimmed some to 3 1/2" wide (1/2" of waste). When I get that close I've used nippers to break off the waste end because I can't really get a "bite" on a strip that narrow. A 1 1/2" strip, though, piece of cake! By the way, be sure to get a stone to finish your cut ends and to 'break' the edges. Cut tiles can be sharp!

It should be fine. Take your time cutting though, let the blade do the work. I used it to cut 2x3 glass tiles, it did wonderful. Bear in mind, the smaller the tile the harder to hold in place while cutting.

About as wide as the blade, about 1/8". About the width of the grout in older bathroom tile. Used it to cut the grout line under tile line in a swimming pool for easier removal to prevent damage to marble plaster. At the time of use during summer of 2014, could not find exactly 4-3/8" blades at Lowe's, but could use whatever the standard is which I think is 4-1/2" Diamond wet cut. ALWAYS use the water hose attachment as not to burn out your blades too soon. Was also able to use it to cut 2" think slabs of soft Indiana limestone. Not all the way through, but enough to make a break line. Was very satisfied with it, but needed extra blades. Did not understand the gimmack of a 4-3/8" blade when 4-1/2" is the standard in the major hardware stores. Hope this helps.

Caleb... i haven't opened the box yet, so i can't speak from experience on this saw. The product description says it will cut stone or ceramic material up to 1-3/8-Inch deep.

Maybe 1 3/8" maximum. I use it to cut into stone and fracture it with chisel at the cut to break in half

Yes, this is the largest size. Use the dies marked 70. Remember this is metric tool.

not sure what the diamond blade is for , but you would be better off using a saw-zal for cutting thick metal, i would worry about ruining the saw motor by overloading it cutting thick metal.i would assume the diamond blade is for tile or maybe thin metal.

El Buey - the largest it can cut is 2" x 14", at a 45 degree angle. Hope this helps you make a decision. Lin

It will but not easily. I purchasing for the same thing and because the tiles were very small I frequently cut my fingers. Wasn't long before I went out and bought a wet tile saw which is what I should have done in the first place. This cutter is best used for solid one-piece tiles.

Zachary, I used this blade to cross-cut bamboo flooring and it did an amazing job. The actual width of the cut is a little less than an 1/8". The term for the width of a cut is Kerf. This precision cut blade is manufactured to have a kerf of 0.102". This is about 1/64" narrower than a 1/8" wide cut. Remember that precision cuts you need a quality miter saw and saw blade.

Sorry this saw is for wood laminate flooring, I also used for wood and plastic molding. Ceramic Tile cutters are very cheap for the manual typs and just a few more dollars for an elctric wet tile saw.Hope this helps you out..BTw this is an excellent Saw, I Laminated 2 large rooms, and a hallway with this saw using the original blade it came with!!

I just finished a project that had stone pieces mixed with some glass tiles. The saw did fine for cuts across both types of tiles.

Yes this cutter can cut a 12"x24" into two 12"x12" tiles. If you are cutting hard porcelain an electric wet saw would be required.

It is limited because the tile will hit the frame of the saw on the left. I just did a job with 6x24 tiles on the diagonal and I had to be quite creative to make all my cuts around the floor vents. It does help that you can make plunge cuts similar to a miter saw. Overall this is a very nice saw. But may not be the right saw for large format tiles.
