NO GLASS OR CERAMICS WILL BE HARMED BY USING THIS TOOL

 I've got a couple of tiles to cut but not enough to buy or hire a tile cutter.

The internet 'told' me that a glass cutter would do the job so, after trying three hardware stores and two tile retailers to no avail, The Warehouse provided one. It's a Tolsen.


There were no instructions with this 'precision' tool that came from China so after trying unsuccessfully to cut with the damned thing I went back to the internet to see if I could be enlightened.

There were no videos on the Tolsen tool but I found one on the Tarvol cutter which I guess is what the devious Chinese copied and named Tolsen.

Here's what some twonk informed me:

GLASS CUTTING

This idiot spend all the time on the video explaining how to get the fucking piece of shit out of the packaging. In the video stroll down and have a look at the comments made by other readers who feel as frustrated as I do. This is like reading the Catechism to try and understand what Catholics believe in.

The tool I bought is about as useful as tits on a bull, It makes no impression on the tile or, I assume, glass so I might, if I can be bothered take it back to The Warehouse - "where everyone gets a bargain" Yeah right!
