Does it cut glass mosaic tiles?

Not sure about glass but does a good job with laying diagonal cuts and small little cuts for curved walls. Using 18x18 ceramic tile.

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.

Hello Diane,Yes, this tool would be great for the job you described. It even comes with a tile cutting blade. Hope that helps!

yes. the one they sell on line only works on smooth tile. You can make one with a 1 x 6" - 18" long board. Pick the size cutter you want to use, make a hole that size in the board first with a hole saw. Tile on flat surface, hole in the board on the tile, standing on board with both feet, then using water and a slow speed on your drill, apply water every 30 seconds. It will give you a very clean cut.

I would ask the supplier if this type of tile is suitable for working with a snap style tile cutter. If so, then I would think the QEP 10552 would be ideal. I have used it to cut small pieces of ceramic & porcelain tile with no problem.

Yes you can. On some cuts, thats the only way I could get a nice clean cut, as the stone was so soft. You can't beat the 'bang for your buck' you get with this saw. Used on two tiling jobs using granite and ceramic tile, and was very pleased with its performance.

It works very well on ceramic tile. I would guess, though haven't tried, it would work on glass. You might try a glass bit (the "V" shaped ones, which I have used with success. When using the hold bits, such as this, be sure to start the drill at an angle and use plenty of water to cool the bit and the material.

Sorry, I don't know. I used mine to cut ceramic tiles, slate stone and glass tiles. The only ones it had trouble on were the glass tiles. Otherwise, it cut the ceramic and slate tiles very easily.

Absolutely. The minimum is probably around 1 inch. With cuts this small it is critical that the tile is secure against the front rail so that the cutter doesn't wonder. Make just 1 nice medium pressure score then snap. Make sure you maintain a constant pressure as you score the tile from front to back. Also make sure you have a few (then recommended number is about 15%) extra tiles because you WILL lose a few. I used this cutter when redoing my entire bathroom with porcelain tiles which are much harder than ceramic tiles and had no problems.

I would say yes. I purchased for cutting stone/lapidary work. The only concern I would evaluate is the height of the blade. Will the height of the blade guide allow you to do what you wish. In addition to harder rocks I have also cut glass tile. So like I mentioned, cutting power probably not an issue, height of blade maybe.

Yes, I've cut glass with this saw. I'm having some problems adjusting the water flow so it will hit the blade on my saw, hopefully I can get that worked out, it will do a better job then. You need a diamond blade without teeth to cut glass.

It would depend on the tile but I would say you could trim what you can score. 1/4"-1/2" though I would account for more breakage when planing how much to order. On some tiles you may have to use this to score it and finish it with the tile snip. I used it on glass tile and all of my cuts were in the middle of the tile. I had to hand snap most of the tiles but it was easy after scoring the tile.

Kim, not with this tool. It should be able to accomplish drilling in glass substances or ceramic tile but be cautious: drill bit will be very small in size, should be diamond or carbide tipped and rotating speed should be very.....low to avoid high friction temperatures. Before drilling into intended object, try it out on a scrap piece and get sufficient experience with tool and drill bit specification. Good luck! Hasito 3/30/2014

technically, no it doesn't have a glass cutter wheel. However, the small cut-off discs will cut almost everything from light metal, to plastic, and wood products. I have cut off everything from nail-heads to burrs on porcelain figurines. I think it might be risky to cut sheet glass with it, even at it highest speed. Knowing Dremel, they probably make a glass-cutting disc. The 8100 is small and it would be hard to free-hand a straight cut across plate glass.

I never cut glass, which has a hardness of 5, with this hole saw. However, I have used it to cut several holes in Class 5 porcelain tile (hardness of 7), which is less than the hardness of 10 for diamond. The tile was about 5/16" thick. The tool cuts a clean hole. You must keep the cutting edge flooded with water.

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.

This tile cutter is designed to cut flat tiles. Aren't couch shells round and uneven? what you need is a saw or dummel type of tool. I don't think tile cutter will server you purpose.

Yes it does. I did 2 backsplashes and and about 200 sq ft of floor tile with the included blade.
