"   WET SAW METHOD: To make a cutout in a tile for, say, an outlet, support the tile on a wood block and move it slowly into the blade of the wet saw. Cut one side, flip it over and make another cut to drop out the waste piece. I&amp;#039;ve got a big tile job to do. Does it pay to rent a wet saw? Among the cuts I have to make are some tricky rectangular cutouts. Can the saw do them? It definitely pays to rent a wet saw for a large job. These machines are designed for rapid and accurate repeat tile cuts, but they also can be used for some of the more intricate work. &amp;quot;I use a wet saw for virtually all of my tile cutting these days,&amp;quot; says Dan Marrazzo, a general contractor in Yardley, Pa. &amp;quot;There are a number of tools that cut tile, such as a right-angle grinder, but I like the fact that a wet saw doesn&amp;#039;t kick out dust. It&amp;#039;s safer, too, since you hold the tile securely and move it into the blade.&amp;quot;    DRILL AND SAW METHOD: Mark both sides of a tile with a permanent pen, then use a glass-tile bit to bore a hole through the tile&amp;#039;s face at each of the four corners. Next, flip the tile over and saw between the holes with a jigsaw and a carbide-grit blade. Support the tile on a pair of wood blocks and cut close to the edge of the block at all times to avoid breaking the tile.  Marrazzo advises making cutouts by marking the tile on the front and back, supporting it at an angle on a wood block, and then moving the tile into the blade. The tile probably will need to be cut from both sides, he says. If renting a wet saw isn&amp;#039;t in your budget, you can make cutouts using a glass-tile bit and a carbide-grit jigsaw blade. Mark the cutout, bore holes at the corners with a glass-tile bit, and saw between the holes. It&amp;#039;s likely that you&amp;#039;ll wear out two or three carbide-grit blades on one cutout, so buy extras. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
