hi guys
just tiling my bathroom at home, the wife chose these tiles
https://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Oly...celain-Wall+Floor-Tile---600-x-300mm/p/213367
tried 2 different manual cutters and they cut short ways successfully 2 out of 4 tries and long ways no chance, I have tried varying pressures whilst scribing with no joy, I put a new blade on my wet cutter (big plasplugs) and it takes ages to do a cut and usually ends up chipping off before I get to the end of cut, I have bought expensive porcelain blades for grinder which work ok but again speeches and chips, I'm wasting tiles at an alarming rate, the manual cutters I used were a McAllister 600mm, crap I know but ok for most ceramic jobs also tried a rubi practic (basic model) with slightly better results but still not even close to good enough. my question is if I purchase a

or
https://www.protilertools.co.uk/product/sigma-3b4-series-3-professional-tile-cutter-67cm
will it snap these down the 600mm side or is it the tiles that are sh11te
any advice or contribution is massively appreciated.
thanks in advance
