    Great, If I was still living in the UK, I would have probably been following your courses.
    Anyway, I bought one of those Ruby scoring wheel and I think I am going to mount it into a piece of bamboo (it will same me drilling into a piece of wood, plus it will look dead fancy :-))
    No problem to that, my question is about separating the two parts once the curve is made.
    Is there anything that can replace a manual tile cutter to separate them?
    I have an electric tile cutter and I do not really feel to have to buy another tool.
    Thanks for your reply.

      If it is on a ceramic tile, once you have done the curved score, put the tile on a flat table and then put a matchstick under the scribe at the top of the curve then press down on the tile either side, as long as the curve is not too severe it should work

    Wondering if it would be useful to score a curve first (using this tool) on a porcelain tile prior to using a grinder to actually cut the curve? (Realize this scoring tool wouldn’t cleanly cut porcelain itself.)

      Hi with porcelain I just usually draw the curve then run an angle grinder through it, if your using it wet, then score the tile then use a pencil to go over the score line, that way you can see what to follow better
